Editing files with filemanager - automatically chowns...

If I edit an existing file with the file manager, I would expect that the file ownership remains. However - editing it will always chown it to root.

Is that as designed? Its very uncomforable, when trying to adjust script files, that need to be owned by the webserver for instance...
(Ask me about B2B marketing automation & low code business solutions, if thats interesting for you.)
