You can't set up your own cron.d.

man cron(1) and cron(8)


I see a mention of a special case for /etc/cron.d. If there is a general
case for handling them where a non-root user can access them in the same
way I can't find it.

If you want the full functionality of /etc/cron.d, then do, you can
not set it up as a normal user - a normal user can not run programs
as another user without using their password. And some of the system
user's do are locked, so their is no password that can access them.
So it takes root permissions to run programs as that user. Then
again, why would you want to let a user do that?
