You can change the owner to "nobody", "wwwrun" or whatever and create a new
group "webeditors" where <your-ftp-user> and the webserver user (nobody) is
a member of.

After that, go to the Install Tool and set these values:

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["BE"]["fileCreateMask"] = '0660';
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["BE"]["folderCreateMask"] = '0770';
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["BE"]["createGroup"] = 'webeditors';

Should work!
