Lars George commented on WHIRR-158:
-----------------------------------

I had also started whipping up an "add-user" script in scripts/util that would 
add the user and take the details as parameters. That is where I stopped 
thinking if it would be a good idea to send the SSH key in as a parameters 
(since it gets transferred, but that is SSH, so should be fine, but it also 
would get logged or written to some places during the install process etc.). I 
started looking into how JClouds does it assuming there is a smarter way. That 
in the end led me to talk to Adrian. :)

> Currently you have to log on to cloud instances with a particular user name 
> (e.g. ec2-user on Amazon Linux, root on Ubuntu on rackspace). It would be 
> nice if you could use the same user as the one that launched the cluster.
