If you turned on the sticky bit for the directory, then
any file placed in it would inherit the user/group that
the directory belonged to.
Then you could make the default permissions something
like rwxr--r-- for newly created files. and the directory
permissions would be rwxrwxrwx
That way, anyone would be able to read/write to that directory,
but once a file was place there, it would belong to the owner
of that directory and have very restrictive permissions, so only
the owner of the directory would be able to edit/delete the file.
