Note that we don't actually *need* a default user, so, this poll is
about deciding on whether or not to include one. So far, I take it
that most prefer to have a default user for the dev profile.

Your suggestions are actually really good, and I might end up using an
approach similar to that in another part: the default Keycloak admin
password. Our window of attack for the default Keycloak admin's
credentials is far bigger than Keycloak itself: while Keycloak folks
expect admins to install and configure it right away, we don't expect
"admins" to open Keycloak as soon as they install Hawkular. So, the
default username/password for Keycloak might live for hours/days
before the admin realizes that it needs to be changed.
