is virtualbox still so poor that you can't have simply all files
related to a VM inside a single directory and need to manage

I don't understand your complaint -- that there's a config directory *and* a disk

The command "cp -R" doesn't seem to be too onerous a way to transfer stuff
from machine to machine.
