This issue is spawned from a related MTC desire for finer grained file ownership control when transferring state over to be used by an application that is controlled via CD:

> Use-case 1:_**I migrated the application manifest using CD. In that process, I am creating namespaces in the target cluster. OpenShift is auto-assigning the UIDs in the target cluster which are different from that of the source cluster. I want to use State Migration to migrate data to the destination namespace such that my apps would continue working without needing manual ownership change.

We need to consider how this should be implemented within crane.
