Me too !
From the stability and security point of view, it's best to keep 
stuff on Dom0 to a minimum. If Dom0 goes down or gets compromised 
then that compromises all your other domains - therefore you want to 
limit it's exposure to software bugs and security risks. 
And of course, when setting up routers and firewalls, then the 
environment in a DomU is VERY mush easier to work in.
