Hi Jason

I'm not completely sure I understand the questions. But, why don't you have
all objects owned by the dbo user. Since there is always a dbo, you wouldn't
have to switch names when someone leaves. A user in the db_owner role can
create objects owned by the dbo user, and that is what I always recommend.
