We can, but someone needs to write a patch with the information. Do you mean qcow2 images?

Yeah, qcow2 images but also one for Virtualbox. Not everyone uses Vagrant and it's quite the overkill to just use it for downloading the image.
Setting the password using bash as init is barely an inconvenience.

Virtual Machine images are now mentioned on the download page.
