It is not possible to add a VirtIO RNG device under a non-root user

[maksimsamt]

As per documentation:
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-qm.html#qm_virtio_rng

- By adding via API there is an error:
500 only root can set 'rng0' config

- In GUI 'VirtIO RNG' section is inactive.

Proxmox VE 8.2.2

Is this expected and standard behavior?
Is it possible to do this action from non-root user?
As for example, usb/devices can be added by configuring mapping:
