I do not have much idea of Window exe files. But once I have used Fedora Live USB creator ( exe) for Windows. When I clicked that exe it brings a GUI for crating live usb. For using it, I need not to install it.
In nutshell I have observed that in Windows we can run software as one exe which do not need installation. (It is also like ./a.out with all lib statically linked) Now think for a imaginary exe file which is a modification of Virtualbox or Qemu or any other such technology. Consider this exe has a live image of ubuntu inside it. As a result, when someone click on this exe file, this will bring a full screen window which will boot a live ubuntu with all softwares(in next 30 seconds). If we can make such one click Ubuntu.exe files (4GB will be good size), It will be possible to many windows users to make a instant trial. This will bring down the barrier of "installing GNU/Linux". I think such projects will be a great use for conversion process and try. As I do not have much knowledge on Vbox and windows, I can just share the idea.
