Adrian Cole commented on WHIRR-158:
-----------------------------------
Note this patch does not change the fact that whirr installs things as root.
It only addresses the login user concern, which would now be your userid, which
would have sudo access to root, which is running the cluster. If we want to
cage services to user accounts, that's a bigger change and would require
another issue, IMHO.
> Allow users to log into clusters as themselves

> 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.
