Should this line, "All images have root logins which are enabled only via a ssh key." actually reference the fact that login is accomplished via the userid "centos" ?

I'll fix it, if so. If not, then it must be from my use case.

I encountered considerable pain with this practice recently. If this is going to be the standard, is it worth adding thos to /etc/sudoers, so forwarded SSH keys are available in sudo to the root user?

Defaults requiretty Defaults env_keep+=SSH_AUTH_SOCK

If someone can point me to the relevant CentOS image generating software, I'll happy submit a patch.
