Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe
The cloud-init scripts allow for the option of creating a user with passwordless sudo access. The VMs we've used so far (Hetzner, Azure, Scaleway) appear to have this feature in by default, so this may not actually be necessary. If it is, we need to consider any potential drawbacks.
Describe the behaviour you'd like
Create a gitpod
user on the VM with SSH key-based access, no SSH access via password that has passwordless access to sudo
Describe alternatives you've considered
Leave as-is - this is an investigation piece.
Additional context
Slightly related to #24
