ovs-dev.py "run" command now accepts the "--user" option for running all ovs daemons as "user". The argument can be specified in "user[:group]" format.
'-u' is an short hand option that, if ovs-dev.py is launched as an non-root user, then current user and group will be used as if they are supplied by the --user option. "./ovs-dev.py run -u" can now launch ovsdb-server and ovs-vswitchd as current user and group.
