I believe, at least in RQ3, that anyone can use a binding enchantment, and
control any bound spirit without the spell, unless it was built with a limit
(see ritual magic) prohibiting this. I personally allow anyone to give a single
command a bound spirit without using the spell, after which the spirit is set
free. To command it, but keep it bound, you need to cast the spell. A spirit
in a binding can't resist.

If you have a problem with the sharing of magical resources, just insist that
all enchantments be built with limits, and don't give out many living magic
crystals.
