As further data points, Debian on AWS EC2 uses the 'admin' username, and all Google-supported images on Google Compute Engine (including CentOS) don't have a default account at all, but rather use integrated SSH key management via our metadata server and an open source daemon we install into the guest.

I really like this setup, its possible to implement with cloud-init and some user-metadata injection at instantiation time, but no where as simple as it is with the gce tools.

For now, I'm going with 'centos'@ logins, lets see if we can work through that a bit.
