There is a reason it's not allowed and I'll tell the reason in a short story..
Long before I released this mod on vB.org, there was a large site that raffled off some very expensive items ($300+ each) on a regular basis. The owner of the site requested the same thing, and I did code it in the raffle system. Everything was fine until the mod he appointed to create raffles had an argument with the owner. The owner thought things would cool down and just let things run as normal. Then one day he got flooded with emails asking when items won in raffles would be delivered. He did not authorize any raffles in that time period and didn't know what these people were talking about. To make the story even shorter, the owner had to make good on what was raffled off or close the site. He chose to close the site because the expense would have been too great to continue on. At that point I removed the ability for a mod to create a raffle and I will never put it back in.
That is why I won't add the ability for anyone but an admin to create a raffle.
