The fundamental question is always: What problem are you really trying to solve?
Okay, I found another rationale beside performance and simplified intra-zone routing (though not as apparent as exclusive routing). It seems that the shared IP stack offer better protection against sniffing on colocated environments (i.e. zone-based hosting): it is not allowed to use promiscuous mode on NIC aliases used in the shared stack, while sniffing does work on exclusive VNICs. That might be a serious difference in some cases...
