Take a look at your own home directory, which behaves more or less as you described. (IIRC Debian might set group ID on home directories.) I set up pseudo-home directories like this, eg music, pictures etc, and I place them under /home, rather than /, so that they reside in my encrypted /home partition. They're all chown'd to belong to me. Cheers, David.
