It's a feature for the cloud infra provider. It's an antifeature for
everyone else. There is value in providing more features infra-side. There
is no value in restricting functionnalities vm-side to favor the infra.
Having managed reasonably large and complicated server infrastructures in
reasonably large and complicated network environments, running on both real
hardware and in virtual machines, I very much disagree. Sure, there are
corner cases where you want more flexibility, but for the majority, the
encapsulation of complexity is absolutely a good thing.
