Is it a giant pain to drag files into a shared folder inside the VM, then retrieve them from Lion OS? I know it's mildly clunky, but hardly a huge inconvenience.

I've done this on various VM's (windows and ubuntu) and while it's not difficult, it's really annoying simply b/c you KNOW it can be done quicker, better, faster, easier etc.
