No, that's the purpose of the CREATOR permission.

Not showing up in the dynamic view sounds like a bug. Or maybe this  
was never added. Please file a ticket for that. In the basic view the  
purpose of the delegate permission is to allow some user to add events  
on behalf of another user. You specify the user and calendar in the  
calendar drop down and Kronolith then creates the event as if that  
user had added it to that calendar. At least it should.
