Why should that make sense? I do not see what you are after with this.

Routed networking implies that every domU is a subnet of its own, so it 
has to have an address space (not only a single address) of its own. 
Dom0 has to have a routing table that connects the dom0 NIC with the the 
virtual subnets that the domUs are.

Why don't you use bridging, then?
