If you want to control this, wouldn't you orchestrate above CloudStack?  Why put it into CloudStack?

Doesn't exist at present.
You can file an RFE for this functionality, though I'd personally
think it's a bad idea. One of the core tenets of cloud computing is
that an end-user is empowered to get things done - not that it becomes
a portal for asking for permission.
If you just want to be notified when a user a creates an instance, I
suppose you could poll the event log periodically and have you
monitoring/logging system fire alerts when a user deploys a new vm.
