Thanks for the patch, this should be fine for sid/squeeze.
For upstream, the libudev backend of the server only looks for devices
with ID_INPUT set, the x11_driver property is ignored (the driver is set
from xorg.conf / xorg.conf.d). Currently the configuration can match
devices by name, vendor, device path, the ID_INPUT_foo attributes, and
an ID_INPUT.tags attribute. I'm not sure which would be more
appropriate here, maybe setting a vmware tag on some device... It might
be worth checking whether rawhide includes something for this, although
it doesn't seem to be in the xorg-x11-drv-vmmouse rpm.
Cheers,
Julien
