plans.movement for vmware to move to 'any generic browser' for management
in the future, and there are nice perl module tools that you can install to
get access to some API calls/do things like deploy VMs from the command
line (http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/sdk_pubs.html), but for general
management, in my experience you still need the windows based client.    of
course one way around that is to build a management VM with client software
and use rdesktop when you need that sort of tool.
