Indeed. We are now using 3.4 and in works much better. And indeed the root password option also works now! :-)
And we can add a domain IF we type domain after every VM that has to be created. (There a some... We work for The airport :-) ). So isn't there a option where we can OR just remove the domain so the only thing left is the name we gave to the machine OR set a standard domain that ovirt uses with every VM created...?

Kind regards and thx in advance!

yes. This has been fixed since (IIRC in 3.4, maybe a bit later, not sure)

I'm not aware of any further issues with cloud-init recently…it should be fine
there's always room for some enhancements…but pretty much you can add whatever is missing in a custom config section (also for windows sysprep) today
