Well, I suppose the scenario is like this.
Your company has 2 users, Jon and Sam.
Jon has just left the company and Sam is picking up all his work.
There needs to be a simple way to transfer Jon's "rights" to all
documents and apps to Sam.
Its probably correct to leave Jon as a user, but just inactivate the
account (e.g. the fact the Jon created and edited some docs is important
information and should not be lost).
But there needs to be a simple way to enable Sam to do anything that Jon
used to be able to do on all of those docs. e.g. not have to make a
manual change on every document.
Maybe there's already a way to do this.

I'd certainly give that a +1. Seems like pretty necessary functionality.
Also, to be able to transfer ownership of all items belonging to a user
(useful when someone leaves your organisation and you need to transfer
their "stuff" to someone else).
Note that you can remove a user without having to transfer any ownership and
you don’t need to be the creator of a page to be allowed to modify it or have
permissions on it.
Also, even if someone leaves a company they’re still the creator of the pages
they created (in reality, this can never be removed, they’ll always be the
creator of that page, even if you try to hide it ;)).
Personally I don’t see this feature as a necessary one. I’m curious: why do you
think it’s necessary? :)
Thanks

Just wondering...3 1/2 years ago it was not possible to change the owner of a
page in the UI.
Is this now possible (with XWiki 7.x) within the UI or do I still need to
use the script?
It’s still not possible to do it with the UI (you have to use a script). The
reason it hasn’t changed is that nobody has asked for it :)
If you think such a UI feature is needed please create a jira issue for it,
with some description as to where you’d see it located in the UI and how it
would work.
Thanks
