I'd suggest that ACLs will be the easiest route here. They're REALLY screwy at first, particularly when combined with Samba, but once you get the hang of 'em, they work very well. Adding ACLs to the fs should be fairly easy, though, to be honest, I'm running EXT3 on the fs I needed ACLs on. I suspect Reiser has those capabilities already built in, as those are the kinds of things reiser was built to provide, but don't quote me on that.
