There have been significant issues with GNOME and KDE Plasma on
VirtualBox over the past few years. Honestly, we need to start
regularly testing it, because the guest integration is brittle and
nobody notices until it's too late. I personally do testing on VMware
for KDE Plasma because otherwise it'd never get tested and issues
would never get fixed.

The most recent issue is that it's unbearably slow and sometimes
suffers serious graphics corruption unless 3D acceleration is turned
on.
