I seriously doubt there'll be any measurable performance difference.

Obviously routing will only work if you're using IP. (Obviously
you'd need to configure v4 and v6 differently).
I haven't thought through what happens if you're using DHCP to
assign user domains static IPs. It might just work if domain0
forwards traffic to the IP broadcast address (255.255.255.255),
or it might be necessary to use a dhcp relay or do something
fancy with netfilter. I'd need to remind myself of what dhcp
requests/replies look like...
