Still not perfect, I guess I need something similar to ls -RAl for some

Try `find /dir -ls`.  You can pipe it into sed like this `find /dir
-ls| sed -e 's%/dir%%g'` and then get something easily comparable.

Cool, it does display the path, but there's still the other issue:

$ touch test\ test
$ find * -ls| sed -e 's%/dir%%g'| awk '{print $5" "$11}'
rocketmouse test

Perhaps awk isn't that important, but it e.g. will filter different file
sizes, for e.g. configurations I edited in the meantime.

You're basically getting down to the dirty tedious parts. Unless you know a full featured scripting language with a find library to find and compare ownership, or you want a custom c program for a rare occurrence, you're just going to have to do it the tedious way. Computer's aren't always fun and glory. For every beautiful network, someone had to run the wires into the wall, through the dirt, and to the other building.
