Sorry it's probably my fault because you're the 3rd one who has written
such a script but we already have one for 4.0.

http://svn.bluelife.at/index.cgi/blueports/view/emulators/virtualbox-ose-devel/files/vboxheadless.in

It is a bit less complicated and can also manage multiple VMs but it
does not have separated flags per VM.

# vboxheadless_enable (bool):   Set to "NO" by default.
#                               Set it to "YES" to enable vboxheadless.
# vboxheadless_user (str):      User account to run with
# vboxheadless_list (str):      Space Separated VBox Hostnames
# vboxheadless_flags (str):     Custom flags for VBoxHeadless
