You can pass the credentials directly to the guest agent using vdsClient on
the host, among other things:
desktopLock
<vmId>
Logoff current user
desktopLogin
<vmId> <domain> <user> <password>
Login to vmId desktop using the supplied credentials
desktopLogoff
<vmId> <force>
Lock user session. force should be set to true/false
Will probably require key based remote ssh execution, and API calls to the
engine, to determine the host and VM UUID

I'm currently looking at the code of vdsClient, to see if i can replicate
the "desktopLogin" feature.
This was why i was wondering if this is the place to post this, because
it's more related to "development", but not to de development of ovirt
itself (or yes, don't know right now... :) )
Thank you
