It wouldn't really matter if the Web Client was on a different VM from vCenter, because the Web Client still depends on vCenter to be running. You cannot direct-connect the Web Client to an ESXi host. This is a perfect example of why the Web Client is an unacceptable replacement for the legacy vSphere Client.

I don't understand why vSphere customers can't be provided with complimentary VMware Workstation licenses to fill this need. It would be a simple, quick stop-gap solution, requiring absolutely nothing but license keys from VMware.

The difference with Altiris is that at least Symantec publicly announced plans for better browser support in their next service pack (due in the next couple months).
