2. Another way is to create a user that does not correspond to a user on LP (gfx-daily-job-submitter or somethign) and add it to the linaro group on v.l.o. This feels a bit better, but it's not very 'self service' -- the only way to create such a user is via the admin panel afaik.

This seems fine to me; creating a machine-to-machine account/setup seems like a one-off action which doesn't need to involve LP. We could share a single set of LAVA credentials for all jobs coming from ci.linaro.org.

If this isn't automated enough, we could have a way to create new LAVA credentials for anyone in a specific Launchpad team?
