Yes, a user can just symlink urandom to prandom and will have a faster
generator.

More usefully they can use it as an entropy source with an entropy
daemon to feed it into the standard urandom/random.

Only if other users will randomly drain /dev/prandom, otherwise you might
as well use /dev/zero.
