I think you're failing to consider what the first S in SSH stands for.
I believe it is not possible to configure SSH to allow access without either a
password or a public key.
This is a feature (not a bug) of SSH, and is really nothing to do with
Vagrant.
Can you think of any other virtualisation / containerisation / similar system
which allows you to access the virtual / container / machine without any form
of authentication?
My final comment is that if "the user has to think - which is not what I want",
what sort of users are you giving access to your CentOS machines?
