I don't know ... but if there was a utility to analyze the tone and content of messages and rank them I think that a lot of your messages to this list would be labeled "aggressive/hostile". You have ranted against BIOS manufactures, IDE chipset vendors, software companies, other open source software projects, people who don't speak English natively, etc. And many of those rants are repeats. The entire combined software/hardware industry does not exist just to piss you off ...
If there is a problem with VirtualBox then I am sure that there is a developer who will listen. But you have to accept that sometimes the answer is going to be "no." VirtualBox is orders of magnitude larger and more complex than a device driver and what works today for the vast population of people might not be worth making more complex just to satisfy the small minority who need highly accurate emulation of what most people consider to be obsolete hardware. The priorities of their project might not be aligned with your priorities and just lambasting them repeatedly is not going to change that. I will speak heresy, but if it really matters that much then maybe the correct thing to do is to have two different versions of the driver - a "correct" one and one that works in "broken" environments like VirtualBox. I am anticipating the next round of flaming vengeance. (But the list would be better without it.)
