What about (can be set globally, too):

admin users (S)

This is a list of users who will be granted administrative privileges on 
the share. This means that they will do all file operations as the 
super-user (root).

You should use this option very carefully, as any user in this list will 
be able to do anything they like on the share, irrespective of file 
permissions.

       Default: admin users =

       Example: admin users = jason
