I tend to batch out stuff like this using a cron job and entries in a
mysql table. Will they setup a cron job for you on the server?
The cron job could run as the user who owns that directory so you
wouldn't have any security problems.

Hey all... I'm trying to slap together a quick & dirty CMS for a
client and I'm having trouble writing back to the files. All
permissions default to 644, and I'd like to be able to write to any
file without having to change them away from their default settings.
My plan is to chmod the file 646, write to it, close it, and then
chmod it back to 644, but I'm getting errors that I can't chmod the
file becuase I (the web server) don't own it. So, I'm trying to chmod
using exec, but that doesn't seem to work either...
Anyone run into an issue like this and/or seen a workaround?
I can't change anything about the server configuration, so I need to
do this all from the script level.
Thanks!
