This is true, but only for the publishing actions. What the NWS does is
that
it creates a non-public record (hidden or versionized) with the access
rights of that non-priveliged user. This user can now work with the
record
untill it's ready for publishing.

When it is ready the NWS temporarily grants the user the right of
unhiding
or publishing the page.

I hope this clarifies things a bit.
