--- Comment #4 from Chris Rees <crees@FreeBSD.org> ---
I understand where you're coming from-- if we take the view that xorg-drive=
rs
installs everything needed for pretty much *any* computer to run X, then we
should imagine that it is a reasonable expectation that vmware machines also
work with xorg-drivers.

If you're still not a fan, perhaps instead we could have a meta-port
specifically for vmware machines, so that in the vmware docs they suggest
installing this port and all the recommended stuff gets installed.  That me=
ans
we don't have to recommend the user install about ten ports at the start.
