[libvirt] managing libvirt users in a one-server context

I have a single KVM server on which I want to allow co-workers the
ability to create vm's.  Here are my criteria in order of importance:

1. I do not want to have to grant all users root privileges.
2. I would like the vm's to use the host's bridge (br0) by default.
3. I do not want one user to be able to start, stop, or (re)define the
vm's created by another user by default.
4. I would like a user to be able grant access to another user.
Mostly for viewing.

Can I do all this with hardcoded usernames and passwords?  If not,
what is my best option?
