As it is now siteAdmins can chown to one of the following:

- nobody
- any siteAdmin of that site

On top of that the serverAdmin can also chown to:

- apache

Chowning to "admin" will not be supported for security reasons. In fact our 
suPHP integration will not run any scripts with an UID lower than 501 ("admin" 
has UID 501).

OTOH: You could use the "force user" and/or "force group" parameters in your 
smb.conf to directly force Samba to fix the UID and/or GID of files created on 
that share.

See: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-
Collection/AccessControls.html
