It may need SUID and such. We just need to make vng spawn the two >interfaces with a less verbose syntax. --network-count 2 ? Well, you ask vng for network device by: --net=user/bridge Currently putting the option multiple times is ignored, but I don't see why that can't work. Regarding the loop configuration, I would like to make this as convenient for the user as possible, I was thinking about something like --net=loop which would create the tc-based loop. How to do this without root, I'm not sure. Perhaps something similar like qemu-bridge-helper could be used.
