It think it has nothing to do with WLAN or LAN. It has to do with how the destination MAC address of the DHCP offer from the router looks like, either a broadcast MAC or the MAC of the host, which I think Virtual Box could translate to the MAC of the guest.

WLAN is a point to point connection and many combination of routers, WLAN card and WLAN driver cannot handle more than one MAC address for a "single" connection.

I think the answer of Franck on the BugTracker, being part of the Virtualbox team, is clear : it is accepted, but will not be worked on for now.
