> It would be handy/helpful if the userid of the user that created a VM was recorded in the database in the vm_instance table. Currently, the only way I know of to find the user that deployed a VM is by checking the logs. There's an owner field in the vm_instance table but this seems to be the account ID of the account the user belongs to.
> By being able to find the user that deployed a VM, it makes VM cleanups much easier since you know who to contact for each VM to check if it can be deleted. A similar thing in the other tables for the other resources would be useful too when trying to cleanup networks and volumes, etc. Also, if this change went ahead, then the API and GUI could be changed also to show the user details for the VM when listing the VM's details.
