Very nice pragmatic solution! However I'm not in a situation where I can presume that I can chmod the parent dir at will.

    Modify IO::AtomicFile's source -- 
    
Change:
### Open the file!  Returns filehandle on success, for use as a constr
+uctor: 
    $self->SUPER::open($temp, $mode) ? $self : undef;



To:

### Open the file!  Returns filehandle on success, for use as a constr
+uctor: 
$self->SUPER::open($temp, $mode) ? $self : undef;
chown $uid, $gid, $temp;

    [download]
    Where uid,and gid are static for this app or dynamically built somehow or passed to your version of IO::AtomicFile... chown $uid, $gid, "tempfile
