Thanks for your comments Vincent.
I have updated the code based on your review comments.

The testing approach ( http://pastebin.com/CKhiAgL4 ) didn't work ( http://pastebin.com/ZPk2XGvv ), so it seems like we are stuck with this approach for now unless more ideas come through.

Based on the discussion vila and I had on IRC it seems that user foo cannot change ownership to user bar and chown would work only under sudo. Can such a situation arise? Not having a thorough test case or approach that works under all situations seems somewhat risky.

As discussed I am setting the status to Needs Review so that we can thrash out the solution some more as needed. I would be happy to try out any other ideas. Based on the outcome we could either update the patch or reject it.
