It is now controlled by a policy (create:forced_host) - so if you want to extend it to other users you can, for example, set up the policy file to control this via a Keystone role

No.

Use nova boot --availability_zone=nova:hostname where nova: is your availability zone and hostname is the hostname of the compute node you wish to put the instance on.

Note this is an admin-only ability by default and can oversubscribe the compute node the instance goes on.

Best,
