Has it ever been considered a feature the fact that all of the activity
of a user in Qubes OS happens in a VM, from the point of view that a lot
of malware has anti-debugging features that usually alter their
behaviour when they detect they are run in a VM?

I don't have any statistic data for malware having such protections, and
I believe that some anti-debugging features just compare hardware cpu
timers to better discern an actual debugging session from a running VM
(otherwise, this could prevent the malware from running on vps
platforms). But it could be a nice side effect...
