Currently this isn't done, but it would be reasonable easy to add.  We
already support the {mode = nnn} attribute.  What would the attribute
for the owner be called?  {user = name}?  {owner = name}?
The group should be added as well then.

It could work like this:

    INSTALL_DATA += afile {mode = 0744} {user = scott} {group = hackers}

FATHER:       No.  Until I come and get him.
