To answer the question posed on IRC.

I do not know at this time if any fix to this will be SRUed to Xenial.

A proper generic fix will require a new userspace api. The owner
conditional can not be properly generically answered without subject
context. This api can be fixed for the inquiring tasks subject querying
against the the object, but the the generic case of querying where an
external helper task H needs to query whether task A with profile P can
access file F can not be fixed with the current api.

Fixing the query using the subjects task is possible to SRU Xenial. The
generic fix of a new API will not be SRUed.
