Hi,
ROS isn't suitable as a server OS, it lacks a healthy network stack, we aren't sure if VNC works and it definitely isn't suitable for this kind of usage. It's in *ALPHA* stage, is very buggy, incomplete, and *NOT SUITABLE*for this kind of mainstream usage.
My idea was to provide it as a little playgound (along with other not-so-well-known OS'es, eg. Plan9), just to have some fun (these installations will run charge-free on spare resources), hoping that this gets a bit more audience and helping hands to ros.
Anyways, having lguest support, would be a good thing: ros could reuse many resources of the host system (eg. networking, and a lot of devices supported by linux). Maybe some day that could fill the gap between native Windows and wine :)
