Ok so IMHO it's pretty useless. I thought it was comparable to anaconda <br>
where you specify the rootpw and an optional user. I expect many call's <br>
if we don't explain they have to use the username root. But we're <br>
building a custom customer front end anyway so we'll just fill in the <br>
root user ourselves I guess. <br>
<br>
Let's say a customer creates a new vm, add's a Centos iso to boot from <br>
and wishes the add a rootpw and admin user account, is there any way to <br>
do this currently? <br>

<font color="#000000">> it was a specific request for cloud-based images. It only makes sense on templates where you've already initialized root or sudo </font><br>
<font color="#000000">> </font><br>
<br>
If I create templates with initialized root or sudo, I wouldn't have any <br>
need to use cloud init to add another user. I could have done that in <br>
the template as well. Also the templates will become single user as it <br>
doesn't make sense to share the same root with multiple users. <br>
