Larry,
There is one other corner-case issue I ran into with VirtualBox 6.X with windows guests run with the --headless option that has caused me to continue with the 5.2 branch (current 5.2.30) that you may want to confirm is fixed. (or at least be aware of) The issue worked on the vbox-users list starts here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/vbox-users/mailman/message/36513439/
but culminated in a strace showing an issue with select-read issue detailed later in the thread:
https://sourceforge.net/p/vbox-users/mailman/message/36516343/
The bottom line was windows guests access through vbox --headless with 6.X were brought to a crawl, while the issue does not occur in the 5.2 branch.
David, I have been trying to duplicate your results, but when I turn vrde on and do the headless boot, my Windows 7 machine errors with "VBoxManage: error: Could not find the VirtualBox Remote Desktop Extension library". I have not yet been able to find the cause. The host has the appropriate extpack installed, and the guest has the correct version of the guest additions.
