Change owner of linux archived objects

Using a linux client, a linux user can archive objects with his linux username or logname.
Using the retrieve or delete archive function, the user cand read or delete only his archived objects.
Because of a user name changing (married woman, enterprise reorganisation), the user cannot read any more these old archived objects with his new linux logname.
Because of the first owner is no more present (he is dead for example), a new user which takes his place can not own his archived objects.
With the new feature, the user can directly access the old and the new archived objects only with the new user name or logname.
