QEMU doesn't use hardware virtualisation. It does software emulation 
only. This is why it's trivial to do what I described.

For stuff that uses real hardware virtualisation... yeah, that tends not 
to work. Although I have successfully run VirtualBox inside VMware 
Workstation. (Had to tweak some options though, turning off some of the 
hardware acceleration...)
