I think it would make more sense for "Hardware accelerated graphics" to be
in the recommended section.
If you are using software for graphics you need a powerful CPU to make the
system usable. That is an odd combination on real hardware. So I think for a
recommendation it makes sense to suggest hardware graphic acceleration for
workstation. I think the running it as a VM on one's desktop is an outlier
case.
I disagree. Testing Workstation in a VM before installing it is
something we should very much care about. There are also cases where
people want to use a VM for developing some new part of the stack and
running Workstation as a VM to test that out is also very viable.

Is it possible to add VirtualBox to workstation. I understand that t is
free software and only the extensions are for personal use.
I have reboot from f21 Workstation into openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle)(x86_64) [1]
which has VirtualBox 4.2.18_OSE r88780 installed by default
(plus sugar 0.98.8)
To test f21-Alpha TC-5 .isos as I cannot load VirtualBox in f21
It would be much nicer to have VirtualBox in Workstation
