If that's an issue (I have no idea, haven't investigated), one option
would be to match users in sshd_config and use the ForceCommand
directive to limit acccess to a particular script that would run the
snapshot command(s).

That is one way to achieve the intended functionality while limiting the
remote backup user to running a single command or script on backup
completion.
