The extra join to CGM is to limit the Owner drop-down to Privileged
users; this is a performance win for those folks that have granted
OwnTicket to Everyone instead of to Privileged.

In most places, the join order is:
   ACL -> CGM -> Users -> Principals -> CGM (Privileged limit)

How many Privileged users do you have?  How many ACL rows, and OwnTicket
/ SuperUser ACL grants?  Do you have OwnTicket granted very broadly?
