Yep, but since I don't have ownership rights in all queues, I would have
to create it in a queue in which I could own it, set myself as the owner
when I create it, then move the ticket to the other queue...quite a
round-about way to do it.

Nope, we don't have any AdminCCs set at the queue level.  Sometimes
staff here have an interest in a case and want to follow the comments on
it, so the ticket creator would add them when creating the ticket.  We
only want ModifyTicket to be granted to the owner, so someone else
doesn't accidentally close or move a ticket that's not theirs (have to
steal it, then perform the action...a two-step process that should
prevent such errors, especially if someone starts clicking things they
don't understand on the Bulk Update screen).
