I've tried VMWare 12 on my Xenial Ubuntu install - I installed a daily Yakkety ISO from here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
and just installed the unity8-desktop-session.
Note I was getting an error from the VMWare player that 3d acceleration was disabled. I just added
mks.gl.allowBlacklistedDrivers = "TRUE"
to my ~/.vmware/preferences file, and restarted VMWare.
Then I was able to log into Unity8 session just fine.
I am finding it very buggy however, mouse position has weird invisible borders, font rendering bugs, screen can black out and then will never draw again. Nothing problematic in the log files I can find.
