Documentation of UML also said that ethernet address is optional. I did
both ways, none worked (and it took me a few minutes and tries to find
out that not all MAC addresses are possible to use for a virtual machine
like UML; is this at least mentioned in some UML doc? It shouls, IMHO).

So, is it possible that I run an UML with full Internet access, and
without having root access in the host machine? Or am I trying something
that from the start was not possible?

If it is not possible, is it easy to set up some form of file sharing
between the host and UML machine? (again, this must *not* depend on host
root access!)
