There was an earlier suggestion about simply changing the exiting owner
profile to be the new owner without the reference to the user etc. (Sorry I
can't remember who suggested it)
I think in the case cited here, that is by far and away the best move. At
the very least it would be my choice.

Subject: Re: Delete powerful profile that owns everything
Good point about IFS - no adopting authority over IFS objects.
I believe one doesn't have to go whole-hog on swapping profiles - there is a
change with less impact - changing the UID or GID of the user.
There are a couple APIs for those changes, and someone will have to confirm
this - it's been too long since I looked at this.

not the programs have used recently that will take a little more
looking into. But not much.
Swapping profiles is different than adopting authority. A little more
work to do but adopting authority is a joke when it comes to the
stream file system (aka IFS to those who don't believe that qsys.lib
is part of the IFS).
