My imagination works a bit differently from yours, it seems.  

My imagination sees "outage in the VM management infrastructure which leads 
to all RRs being down at the same time, and no network left to bring them 
back"... *shiver*

(OTOH using the technologies Mark mentioned, having a VM layer makes sense
- if the "routing engine" is not "software run on top of a general purpose
OS" but "a routing engine VM running on top of a hypervisor"...  but then
more along the lines of what Nick proposed, with a dedicated metal running
the hypervisor, and no fancy VM management-move-around-automatism engine
playing tricks in the background)
