 You don't need root privileges to use a tap device.

You can access a preconfigured tap device but you cannot allocate a tap device and connect it to a bridge without CAP_NET_ADMIN.

btw, shouldn't we, in the general case, create a bridge per user and use IP NAT? If we have a global bridge, users can spoof each other's MAC addresses and interfere with their virtual machines. They can also interfere with the real network.

That's not a concern with most one-user-per-machine configurations, but the default configuration should be safe.
