changing ownership is something different to the rest of your questions.
If you want to change ownership, Thomas Steinmaurer has a very neat little
utility which does that - you need to ask him personaly for it. He's on this
list.

As for grants, I think your best bet is to create a role, then grant all
tables to teh role, then when you need to add a user, you simply grant the
role to the user.

If you only ever want to ave one user to use your database, then changing
owner is your best bet.
