Think of this from another perspective: other linux virtualizations
(e.g. KVM and xen) also use the same network configuration (bridge to
a physical network device) by default. So while xen (when using PV)
can run under vmware, your particular setup would prevent it from
getting network connectivity too. Just saying that it's not lxc's
fault :)

Having said that, I recall some VPS providers enforcing the same
limitation, so your condition is quite common. Please share whatever
ended up working for you so others can benefit from it as well.
