Take a look at your own home directory, which behaves more or less as
you described. (IIRC Debian might set group ID on home directories.)

I set up pseudo-home directories like this, eg music, pictures etc,
and I place them under /home, rather than /, so that they reside in
my encrypted /home partition. They're all chown'd to belong to me.

Cheers,
David.
