I'd very much prefer if the cloud-init default config (ie: debian as the
username) wasn't tempered with. I've seen cloud providers that prefer to
use $cloud-provider as username, though this means changing the normal
Debian image which we would provide from cdimages.debian.org by some
$cloud-provider sepcifics. IMO, there should be only a single Debian
image source, ie: debian.org, and users should be able to verify its
hash. Otherwise, It means the image has been made outside of the Debian
infrastructure.

If we do decide to use azure as the default user for the Azure cloud,
and publish an image with such configuration through
cdimages.debian.org, then it's a different issue for which I don't
really have an opinion (it's IMO a distraction of very low importance).
