The owner of the table could be a role which the batch runner is part of
(along with whatever other roles you wish to have 'owner'-level
permissions on the table).

In general, I do prefer that permissions be seperably grantable. Being
able to grant 'truncate' permissions would be really nice. Is the only
reason such permission doesn't exist due to no one working on it, or is
there other disagreement about it?
