Description
We don't like it that HyperVM creates a user for every new virtual machine. This is related to a feature that you can (vzctl) "enter" the virtual via the hardware node, for instance when firewall has locked you out. We don't allow normal user login to the hardware node at all and just don't want any users created. Can this become optional or removed totally?
If you don't think it is security related, then it can always be a feature request. We think that a normal user should have no entrance to the hardware node even though it is forwarded straight to their virtual machine. If this somehow breaks, who knows what can happen.

"If this somehow breaks, who knows what can happen."
Well, watching TV can break things aswell.. who knows what can happen (Explosion? Fire?) :)
Optional setting will be the correct answer. Not a security issue, just a feature.
