As for ESX 5.5 support, I have that working right now in production in our VCL instance. I had to backport the support for vDistributed Switches and a few other small things, but otherwise it works great.
And strictly speaking, it isn't necessary to populate /etc/hosts with the private addresses (for the 2.3.x release series), but if you don't you still need to have dhcpd set up with those hostnames and /etc/resolv.conf set up to resolve those shortnames properly. Pulling that data from the database will be a great new feature.
