Thanks for the suggestion.

While VirtualBox has its share of bugs:
  - Unable to install OpenBSD 6.[6-9] as a guest,
  - Occasionally does a mouse grab when switching window focus while
    the host machine is under high load,
  - Rarely fails to boot some Linux VM, need to try a second time.
QEMU-based emulation also has a problem:
  - The mouse pointer flickers and is nearly invisible while I'm moving
    the mouse.

Since VirtualBox VMs and QEMU/KVM based VMs cannot be run at the same time
(the kernel prevents this), I effectively have to choose between one and
the other.
