User nobody

When installing in a shared linux hosted environment, the install script (first run of index.php) created write-protected files for the example site.

Because in such an environment the user has no ability to change ownership on files owned by nobody, all the files that comprise a sample site are un-editable.

Is there any ways of doing the install without creating the "nobody" monsters?

Is there ANYBODY out there running eZ Publish without root access? After a very simple install, I was optimistic. However, slowly but surely the inconveniences are piling up (the disappearing .htaccess, user nobody sacurity concerns), makign me doubt whether it is possible in the first place.

Thanks for any help you can provide
