I've spoken with Bluestream now, and according to them the main issue they had
with the Virtual Drive API previously was that it lacked a means of getting the
title of a topic remotely, so they had to download the resource to the local
cache in order to populate title information. Has this changed (assuming it was
correct in the first place)?
I'm sorry but I don't understand the answer of Bluestream.
Because XXE can access/open/edit files stored on a remote server, XXE
can certainly get the title of a topic stored on a remote server.
You'll find here my answer to your post complaining about the
performance problems related to opening a remote DITA map and displaying
the titles of all the referenced remote topics here:

Please take the time to carefully re-read my answer.
Note that as of v7.1 (August 22, 2016), we have implemented the
following suggestion which was found in my answer to your post:
---
What do you think about asynchronously loading the referenced topic
files to get their titles?

See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/changes.html#v7.1.0

Enhancements:
...
* When rendering a DITA map stored on a remote drive, the titles of the
topics referenced by this map are now loaded asynchronously. This
considerably speeds up opening a DITA map stored on a slow remote drive
such as the Google Drive™ (provided that the document cache is given a
sufficient capacity; see "Document cache size" in the
Options|Preferences, Advanced|Cached data preferences form).
This feature is controlled by new user preference called
asyncLabelLoading. The values allowed for this user preference are: no,
yes, remote. The default value is remote.
There is no user interface which may be used to change the value of this
user preference. If you need to change its value, please use xxe's
command-line options -putpref and -delpref. Example: start XXE using
"xxe -putpref asyncLabelLoading yes".

If so, I have about $20,000USD in budget for upgrading the XXE addon which I
will use for performance improvements rather than usability improvements.
We are clearly open to any reasonable, generic, request for enhancements
targeting performance improvements.
