I've asked myself the same thing, and actually set everything to
www:www manually where needed. That's a hack, ugly, and error-prone, so
not really an advice I'd give to anyone working in a larger scale
production environment.

Unifying that to one user (www:www is nicely application-independent
and task-related, I think) would be really great.
