(Get the code!)
By default I think it makes sense to have cirros have a well known user-name and password.
I'm not opposed to the suggestion of having it generate a random one or disable password auth entirely.
we'd just have to figure out how to do this.
The easiest way to do it would be to add a command that runs and does what we want, and then could either
a.) allow the user to invoke that command from user-data (this might expose a race condition unless we made sure it could happen before ssh daemon up).
b.) invoke the command based on some other input (kernel command line perhaps?) This wouldnt change the default behavior though.
