Their official position IIRC is that they discourage VM use,
so they might not want to offer a virtual appliance.

While they're technically correct, there's value in virtual
network plumbing, so you can build up separated compartments, and
routers which force everything through Tor.

It would reduce the threshold of entry, even though there
are ways of detecting that you're running in a hypervisor
jail, and break out of it.
