Yep, this is really cool. I don't remember what it was called, but didn't Sun do something like this, where the JVM basically interfaced directly with Xen?

GuestVM: http://labs.oracle.com/projects/guestvm/

Still an active project as far as I know. Mick Jordan has as of late been hacking on Maxine and I've seen GuestVM related commmits in Maxine.
