Changing ownership home directories and their contents?

[Josef Wolf]

Hello!

How do I ensure that home directories and their contents are owned by their
users and their primary group.  I'd like to do something like:

  files:
    home u=$(owner) g=$(owners_primary_group) act=fixall

but tehre don't seem to exist some special notation that says

  fetch uid/gid-info from the passwd-entry with the name of the top-level.

Do I need to use an external tool for such a thing?
