Well, I’m changing quite often ownership of federated posts. But I admit — I change it before that topic/OP has federated, so perhaps I should say I’m changing ownership of a post that will be federated.

If I remember right I have changed ownership of already federated one by moving that topic under un-federating category, did it there and moved back to original category.
