limits and features

Is there a way to deploy a VM in a particular cluster? We would like
to dothat, since we´re probably going to have different server models,
with
different licenses but we didn´t see any way to do that neither from the UI
nor from the API.

We saw that the domain admin is not able to create accounts or change its
limits. It is only possible to create users. What is the reasoning behind
that? We thought the point of having a domain admin was to delegate some
tasks to the client, especially the distribution of resources within a
domain.

Current resource limits include ammount of VM instances or volumes. Are you
planning to enhance this feature and include limits such as virtual CPUs,
RAM and disk space?

You can do that by using host tags per cluster. You can add same tag to all the hosts within a cluster. 
Host tag can be added either while adding a new host or through updateHost API.

Put the same tag on the service offering used to create the VMs. This will ensure that the VM gets deployed to the matching tagged host only.
