So, on a site with a lot of virtual hosts, one should create a
users/groups www to own the files, that need to be world-readable for
the http server to read them? The ftp daemon that is used to upload
would need to run as www then, right?

Is this the correct way to do it? If yes, we have been doing it wrong
for years and my webmaster colleagues will kill me on monday for
making their lifes even more miserable.
