The simplest way to do that is to give each user their own individual group, and then simply use the *group* quotas rather than the individual per-user quotas. This works very well where the user is having files created on their behalf by other UIDs (eg. httpd in this case) because of the standard BSD behaviour that files default to inheriting the same group ownership as the directory they are created in. With some exceptions for files created by root, or where the sticky bit is set on the directory.
