	What I did to fix that is:
#1) Removed the wizard check from $quota_utils:bi_create,
#2) Protected the create() builtin via $server_options.protect_create
#3) Set up $bf_create() along these lines:

	if (!length(children($garbage)))
	set_task_perms(#2);
	foo = create();
	chparent(foo, args[<whatever it is>]);
	$wiz_utils:chown(foo, args[<whatever it is>]);
	set_task_perms(caller_perms);
	return foo;
	else
	set_task_perms(#2);
	foo = children($garbage)[random(length(children($garbage)))];
	chparent(foo, args[<whatever it is>]);
	$wiz_utils:chown(foo, args[<whatever it is>]);
	set_task_perms(caller_perms);
	return foo;
	endif
