One of the biggest issues (complaints) about earlier versions of XenDesktop 7.x was that you had to present desktops to all users of a delivery group. The truth to this is that you can actually limit this - however it is not part of the GUI until the latest releases of the 7.x platform.
If you are in need of limiting who gets desktops, you need to break out your PowerShell SDK for XenDesktop and look at the Entitlement Policy for your Delivery Group. You can enable the User Filter and in turn assign users or groups to get the desktop.
Below is a sample of this change. Note that you have to have a Delivery Group with Desktops enabled for this to work.
Add-PSSnapin *Cit*
Get-BrokerDesktopGroup *
#Note the Uid of the Delivery Group you are interested in limiting - in this case my sample Uid is 32
Get-BrokerEntitlementPolicyRule -Uid 32 | Set-BrokerEntitlementPolicyRule -IncludedUserFilterEnabled $true -IncludedUsers "MyDomain\MyUserGroup"
#The above will set the entitlement policy object to be enabled and add my limiting group
Get-BrokerEntitlementPolicyRule -Uid 32
#Verify the settings you just configured
