a couple of features I've wished for when using vbox and now bhyve..
maybe these are there but hidden.. I don't know..

1/ ability to assign a serial port to a listenning TCP socket..
    similar to the kernel debug option you have now
    (though worryingly a doc I said mentioned that that was going 
away, which I think is a pitty)
2/ the ability to run a script file when an internal ethernet port is 
brought up.
   like the ppp and mpd link-up/link-down scripts.
   to do things like add an address to the tap interface or add 
firewall rules etc.
3/ (and I may look at doing this myself)..  add an option to connect 
to netgraph for networking.
  vbox did this at one stage.. not sure if they still do. WIll 
investigate.
