Should we consider adding a preference to the beagle-search interface to control this? Maybe we could just add a small score modifier to the documentation. (since it was not created by the user) Or we could even add a system wide score modifier which scores files created by the currently running user a tiny bit higher (since one is far more likely to search for something that they own permissions wise) we could again make it something that can be disabled from the command line for some of those more elaborate nfs setups where permissions might be odd.
