Not true. There are a number of subtle uses of file owners in AFS,

Hrm. Are these documented anywhere (other than the source code)?
The published documentation explains how dropboxes work from the user's
point of view. I don't believe there is a good description of the
mechanisms that make it work, but basically, if you have 'i' on a
directory, the fileserver will let you write to files in that directory
which you own.
