Ignoring the CPE side of things it means using multiple service flows per cable modem.
Dynamic service flow add / remove adds complication and is best done via a PacketCable type interface. PacketCable is something VM are only now getting into for use as a carrier for VoIP.
The alternative, setting up static service flows, adds complication.
Looking at the CPE it's already quite precarious enough doing basic home gateway functionality. Adding a second DOCSIS service flow and guest WiFi network might be a bit much for the poor thing.
