that's OK i guess... except I have no confidence in "ever" :-)
And even if it remains true, it's still a lot easier to back up or 
move your site if you keep it in its own folder.  It's annoying 
having to individually export 37 items in the root...

to answer the original question: yes, you can do what you want
with VHM.
