I expect these two requirements are already possible without
any modification to VRM.

Assume, your destination folder is "I" (for implementation)
and you have configuation objects "C1", "C2", ... one
for each of your virtual domains "D1", "D2", ...

The configuration objects could be any object capable of holding
the configuration information and inheriting from "Acquisition.Implicit"

Then you rewrite your virtual domain URL for "Di" into

     VirtualHostBase/Di/Ci/I/VirtualHostRoot

Due to the magic of acquisition, your should get the configuration
into your implementing "I".
