are going to do everything for them just because they request it or

Being able to run as a non-root user isn't important for catalyst's
primary development goals, which are to facilitate Gentoo releases.
You have a few options:
#1. Run catalyst on your own box, not one where someone else is admin
#2. VMware Server (it's free, you know)
#3. hack catalyst locally
#4. hire someone to do the work for you
#5. bribe a catalyst developer to do it for you
