AFAIK if you change network-script, traffic will still go through dom0.
I suggest you either :
- install vyatta on dom0, or
- treat domUs like any other physical server. On normal server, you'll
have vyatta bridging traffic from (for example) eth1 to eth2. Do the
same thing with Xen setup: on dom0 you have two bridges (for domU's
eth1 and eth2), while vyatta domU itself has a bridge.

Another alternative is to use domU as backend/priviledged domain.
Something like this

This tend to be more complicated though, and I haven't tried it
personally. I'd prefer to stick with standard bridged setup.
