virtual user managementfor ssh access without app user permissions
For security reasons, I would like to have the option to create, change and delete virtual linux users which could connect to the Hypernode using SSH and their own provided SSH key. Including a sudo look-a-like group which users could change to the app user. This to provide 3rd party engineers/applications access without giving full control to the app user.

Hi,
We now have this in the form of FTPS. Check out this article: https://support.hypernode.com/knowledgebase/configuring-ftp/#FTP_over_TLS_FTPS_BETA
This allows you to create users and sandbox them to certain directories. They can then upload files with scp.
For now it is opt-in, you can ask our support (support@byte.nl) to enable it for you.
Best,
Hypernode Team

We would also really like this. I completely second what Joram said about chroot as well: this way we could allow 3rd party developers access to just the staging folder for example.

This would be great, we have multiple 3rd parties who connect directly through FTP/MySQL. Being able to use SFTP/SSH tunnels without giving away your app credentials would be a nice step up security wise.
Also, some sort of (optional) chroot mechanism for those users would be 'the cherry on the pie'.
