Hi,
We, too, would prefer to use a non-root account, and we are working towards resolving this situation.
One of the reasons why it works that way is that we interact with PVE via its API. As a result, things that we can or cannot do with the host under a certain account depend on the platform API's capabilities.
Besides, a service that is capable of doing all the stuff that is required to perfrom a proper backup is by definition is already mighty enough to wreak havoc, even without root privileges.
Thanks!
