Yup. You need kernel support because you'll want to run the kernel in ring 1 which is normally not accessible to userspace.
It may be more natural to use something like Qemu as a base though since it already supports all of the platform hardware emulation.

If you're talking about running an unmodified Linux kernel inside a userspace emulator, surely Qemu can do that already -- no UML required? Would the VMI make it any easier to do so?
