This is the administrator's job to configure hypervisor hosts.

Simple users changing Host networking? I think it's not a good idea.

Maybe you wasn't clear enough. The settings I mentioned are talking about

All the hosts in a cluster must have configurations to see all the logical 
networks assigned to that cluster. This way, a VM that uses a specific network 
can easily migrate between hosts without losing networking
