Has anyone done this?   Other than for someone who does a LOGON to the
VM console can you see any problem with this?

Most lines of what comes on the Linux console is not single lines
output, and so CP is limited in what can be done. Like this:

18:44:05  INIT: version 2.82 booting
18:44:08 Running /etc/init.d/boot
Mounting /proc device
18:44:08 ..done
Mounting /dev/pts
18:44:08 ..done
18:44:13  Boot logging started on /dev/ttyS0(/dev/con
18:44:16 Enabling syn flood protection
18:44:16 ..done
Disabling IP forwarding..done
18:44:19 Setting up hostname 'lnx00c00'
18:44:19 ..done
18:44:19
18:44:19 Setting up NIS domainname 'home.rvdheij.com'
18:44:19 ..done
18:44:19
Setting up loopback interface
18:44:38 ..done
18:44:38

But SCIF output has similar problems, so you would at least need
something to break up the lines when SCIF picks them up.

I know it requires a (virtual) network connection, but have you
considered to have syslog write the output 'remote' and catch that on
VM ?  I could also see some value in an IUCV-based virtual console
driver for Linux (playing serial console through virtual CTC is not my
idea of having fun).
