Ah, now I see what's going on!  Thanks for the info.  It seems that
the ssh plugin simply ignores everyone that isn't the default user.
:-\  Perhaps it should grab the first user when the default one isn't

The stock ec2-user user works when you delete its account before you
create the image, right?
