Trent, I am able to load the VRT in ArcMap, and while it does now recognize -128 as the NoData value, it is identifying the raster as unsigned byte despite the <Metadata> section workaround given by Even, and thus does not properly respect the NoData areas. This is strange since it recognizes the original GeoTIFF as signed byte. I'm using ArcGIS 10.2.2, which may have something to do with it. Perhaps it's fixed with 10.3/10.4.
I have used their Raster Functions before but have not played around with the Image Analysis window - another reason to upgrade to 10.3+.
