I wasn't trying to insult you. Sorry if that I did. It was a lighthearted explanation of why that will never happen, at least not in the shared environment.
We have several clustered CF enterprise setups. They add a whole new level of difficulty to management and maintenance. The additional cost in support greatly increases the cost of provisioning above hardware and licensing. For now VPS is as close as anyone will get to affordability and isolated stability. Unfortunately, I'm sure that will change once licensing catches up.
