Comment:

 epifanio is recommending we install Virtual Box additions by default and
 that in testing when running a built iso it will be ignored. For VMWare
 users installation of the VMWare tools via apt-get should remove the VBox
 stuff to avoid conflict. This would mean only some users would need to do
 the extra step as opposed to all current users be effected.

 The only issue I see is philosophical:
 Do we want to do this an give initial preference to VBox?

 Test [http://www.geofemengineering.it/data/live_base.iso iso] proving
 concept

 Would be implemented in version 4.0
