The answer you got from someone else (regarding the "Owner" permission)
has been better than mine.

  The permission that controls the creation of the factory type controlled
  instances is given as "permission" in the "ContentInit".
  By default, "Owner" has this permission.
  Changing the permission and withdrawing it from "Owner" works for me.
