Hello,

I've got a couple of questions:
- What about this tool using non-root accounts to connect to OpenStack
nodes? Currently, it seems to assume that it always is going to use "root"
for SSH.
- Shouldn't it sanitize all sensitive information (user names, host names,
passwords, tokens, keys etc)?

Thanks.
