Thomas, any chance you could comment on this one?

Hi! Sorry for the late response. The xf86-input-vmmouse configure script should have a number of options to adapt to distro-specific locations and other stuff. For example, if vmmouse_detect isn't present when it's needed you should install it somewhere else (/bin perhaps?). I think vmmouse_detect is the only executable the package installs sou it should be sufficient to use --bindir=/bin during configuration. The first issue with "KERNEL=="event[0-9]*" is a bit trickier! Why doesn't it work with OpenSuSE? Is there something that works better with this distro?, I could certainly add a configure option to xf86-input-vmmouse to look for something else.
