We've published a revision of our draft providing a framework for
migrating flow-associated state between middleboxes.  One use
case is VM migration.

Abstract:
   This document presents an initial framework and discussion of the
   problem of transferring middlebox (for example, firewall or NAT)
   flow-coupled state from one middlebox to another while the flow is
   still active.  This has most recently come up in the context of
   virtual machine (VM) migration between hypervisors, but it is a
   problem that has appeared in other situations, as well.  We present
   some of the parameters of the problem, define some language for
   discussing the problem, and begin to identify a path forward for
   addressing it.
