Need little help in permissions tunning

Hi,

I'm having question according small tuning of permissions. I have following setup:

Share name irrelevant user:group 777 and on top of it Samba with RW privileges for my user/group.
Within share following:

SABnzbd
|
|-Backup -.nzb Backup Folder
|-Complete - default category downloads lands here
|--Movies - CP Download folder
|--TV Shows - SB Download folder
|-Incomplete - Failed jobs
|-Upload - Watched Folder

Permissions for folder SABnzbd and anything that is below it is 775 and user/group is sab:root so you see that even I don't have write rights (just in case of accidental delete).
Only folder Upload has different right 777 since I need to be able to upload nzb files.
Permissions for completed downloads are 777 (and that's fine) but permissions for Backup files are 664 and of course I'm not able remove files. Is there a possibility to set 777 on those files as well?

Permission setting only works for the "complete" part.
SABnzbd considers all other files as "private" for the user account that runs SABnzbd.
We're looking at making that more flexible for a later release.
