> I have noticed that Plexus Archiver 4.2.0 in SNAPSHOT version has grown
> methods like `org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.Archiver#setOverrideUid`. It
> seems that after it is released it should be possible implement Maven
> Assembly Plugin extension that would allow to use these methods to set,
> e.g., TAR archive owner/group entries to some reasonable value even on
> Windows.
> I am attaching unfinished untested patch that I tried to explore the
> possibility.
