Wrong, Linked Clones is available and supported via vSphere API, here is a vSphere SDK for Perl implementation: http://engineering.ucsb.edu/~duonglt/vmware/vGhettoLinkedClone.html
For more information there is also a VMware whitepaper on how this all works via the newly introduced functionality in vSphere: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/linked_vms_note.pdf
In the past it was true, Linked Clones was only available via Lab Manager and then View.
Here is also my hacked version of Linked Clones via Service Console/Busybox console for pre-ESX(i) 4.0:
Linked Clones script for ESX 3.x
Linked Clones script for ESXi
