Okay, I figured it out. It seems the Owner info is partially incorrect
if the position of the object moves relative to the physicalRoot (i.e.
through export/import).

Running the following script fixed the problem for me (thanks to peterbe
for his Recursive folderish test recipe) -- let's hope it didn't break
anything else:

## Script (Python) "fixOwnerAfterAdd"
##bind container=container
##bind context=context
##bind namespace=
##bind script=script
##bind subpath=traverse_subpath
##parameters=obj=None
##title=
##
if obj is None:
    # start 'here' unless else is specified
    obj = context
# loop though everything!
for object in obj.objectValues():
    # is the object folderish
    print "Fixing %s<br>\n" % object.title_or_id()
    obj.manage_fixupOwnershipAfterAdd()
    if object.isPrincipiaFolderish:
        # go deeper
        print "Recursing: %s"%object.title_or_id()
        print context.fixOwnerAfterAdd(object)
return printed

Cheers
