Now that Mozilla 1.0 has been released, and Debian 3.0 is stuck in a

release? It would be a shame to release Debian 3.0 in the next couple
of weeks and not include Moz 1.0.

It's called "user private groups" I think, and you want it. You can add
generic groups as well of course, but the user should have their own private
group.
There is documentation about this somewhere; I read some on Red Hat's site
