If you're interested in working on 3602 then please do so. However it sounds from the above that for CPack we need declarative information for CPack to put in the package for package-install-time updates. Please look at the "INSTALL" scope of set_property: http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.1/command/set_property.html It is meant specifically for setting information about files for use by CPack. One could add properties for user and group names.
