I'm running the same debian 7 guest on both a windows host and a devuan 1 host, not at the same time of course. The devuan host is running xfce, and I find myself managing the guest from the GUI mostly. The GUI is qt-based, so the accessibility is not what it would probably be if it was gtk-based, but it is still useable. Also, everything that can be done from the GUI on virtualbox can also be done through the command line. As for the guest itself, it's very much as if it were the host. Some usb devices passed through to the guest don't handle as fast as they would on bare metal, but that's about it. If you have more specific questions, I'll try to answer them.
