It was gonna happen soon - just couldn't figure who would be the first, but, it seems like VirtualBox took the lead. I use the words "took the lead" because it doesn't seem too likely that Vmware or Xen intend to enter this particular corner of virtulization - happily serving the servers and workstations.
VirtualBox 3.0 has an early beta out that introduces OpenGL 2.0 and Direct3D support.

The graphics support for Windows, Linux, and Solaris guest machines are not just the main features in the upcoming 3.0 release, but also a lot of other fixes and tweaks, including a streamlined settings window, better synchronization of shared folders between Linux and Windows host/guest setups, and continued optimizing of virtual processors. The OpenGL and Direct3D additions will, of course, depend heavily on your hardware, and how much video memory you allot to your virtual machines, but it should clear up quite a few compatibility problems.
