Hi JimL,
you can always go and do good old NATing of several different hosts to virtual internal IPs (eg 192.168.x.x). Keep in mind that this will only work on a per-service level. Say you might want to give your mailserver one VZ and your Apache another one.
This would simply be added security.
If you want to run several apache-instances on different hosts, you would need to run a proxy server on one VE or the host (not recommended - security). The proxy could go and interpret the clients DNS wanted and hand out the wanted data from another VZ. The problem with this situation to me is, how could the users of different servers edit their webspace say with FTP? We could only redirect to one FTP service which needs access to all VEs hosting areas => the FTP would need to be run on the host.
All in all, I personally can not think of a good hosting for several domains with different VEs. Although, service seperation might be the option that already suits you.

This doesn't look comfortable...
