Only one of the hosted vms will ever be native all others will require translation/emulation of respective lifecycle things...why would anyone want a vm like that ? It would be a total mess, how many String classes would it have (java, dotnet etc), its would be total madness and a large mess that would ultimately be many times more complex and a lot harder to enhance in the future because one would always be fearful of breaking or changing the behaviour of one of the hosted vms.
