I guess the problem here is that we want to have this in a spec. And I'm
not sure adding "You must use the 'admin' user as owner of the files" to the
spec will be accepted, since it forces distribution to have an 'admin' user.

And why would it be 640? I see absolutely no reason to make the files
unreadable by the users (or we should do it for most files in /etc to be
consistent...)
