There is indeed a page on en.Wikipedia specifically for requests for the Account creator permission : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/Account_crea...
I don't know about other languages or projects.

So, I often find myself doing outreach related to enwiki before large groups, and while I have no interest in becoming a sysop, could really use the Account Creator permission. Is there really no page to publicly request this? The instructions cited below, taken from here[1], suggest so, but that just feels broken. I don't like the idea of privately reaching out to some admin for this permission.

Anyone in the world of tomorrow! can do shell requests (Git), Then we just need to bug people to get it merged (eg: Reedy/Roan/others etc etc).
That will cut down a lot of time.
Not really, the associated bugzilla paperwork or IRC begging is still needed.
