[ovirt-users] Questions about AAA-JDBC -- user's setting their own password?

Hi,
I'm setting up a new ovirt-4 system on a single machine to replace my old
vmware-server single-system infrastructure. I have a handful of users,
and I'd like to give them access to specific VM consoles (and possibly the
ability to start and stop the VMs). I don't want to set up a whole
FreeIPA system, instead I'd like to use the AAA-JDBC extension. But I
have a few questions that aren't really answered in the
wiki/documentation:
1) The documentation talks about adding domains.. Must I do this or can I
just use the default (internal?) domain for my users?
2) I have a command-line interface to create new users -- is there any way
to do that in the UI?
3) Must I create groups via the command line or can I create those in the
UI? If I have to create them in the CLI, must I manage the group
membership on the command line, too?
4) Most importantly, is there any way for my users to change their
AAA-JDBC passwords via the web UI? Some of my users are halfway around
the world, so there's really no way I can sit with them on the command
line to let them set their password. I couldn't find anything in the
documentation about this, and indeed couldn't find anything in my (granted
limited) search of the web interface. Personally I would have considered
this a required feature that (IMNSHO) would have blocked a release.
Thanks,
