I would say that you should get the same as a standard installation would give you (i.e. drag&drop from a dmg), which means that the owner should be the user. Apple installs its apps with root as owner, but it does not make it group-writable. So this proposal would not correspond to anything that normally happens, therefore I would not recommend it. So unless your app needs special privileges for some reason, I would say that the owner should be the user.
Ok, that is what I tried to do, initially, but it did not seem to work. What choice from the popup in PackageMaker would cause the owner to be the user?
