Default user in NetHunter terminal

Hello! I've just installed NetHunter on a Nexus 6P, and I've quite enjoyed it so far.
One thing has been bugging me, though -- when opening the NetHunter Terminal (and choosing the Kali terminal option, instead of Android), the resulting session is started as root. Is there a way to chance this? My first thought was to use the "initial command" option in terminal settings to `su kali`, but that seems awkward (and might require me to use `exit` twice?).
Thanks in advance!
