I saw people on the Reddit thread saying the Ubuntu requirement was a showstopper for a lot of them.

You might look into the Win 10 linux support, Ubuntu is one o the supported distros. Not sure if it would have full access to resources, have just used it a bit at work and setup was super simple.

I remember a few weeks ago a when some Microsoft software engineers came to the career fair at Univ. of Maryland. One of them was working on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows, so I ended up bugging him for about an hour on when they'd support GPU passthrough for Ubuntu on Windows.

He said it was on their list of most requested features, but refused give me a data on when it would be ready :/

Kind-of +1 about this, I don't really want to run dedicated Ubuntu for something like this but I have no problem running virtualized Ubuntu with GPU via VTd passthru. Recently we've built such host - server board with 2 GPUs that now runs two powerful virtualized desktops. Host uses NixOS and libvirt.
