Why is root the owner of each domain directory?

Is there a way to automate Plesk so that the FTP user for a domain is the owner of their directory, rather than root? As far as I know, Plesk is the only server admin tool that does this, and it makes it annoying to create other files/folders as needed in one's own directory.

BTW I am using Plesk 8.6 on a MediaTemple dv account.

Thanks
