Perhaps things have improved, but at one time for the 6500
platform certain functions could only be performed in the
"native"(? is that the right word) context, and you needed
to place all the rest of your traffic/interfaces in a VRF
leaving the "native" context for management (sort of the
reverse of your proposal, instead have a "Internet" VRF
for everything except for management).

Have the latest IOS versions eliminated those challenges
on the 6500?
