I think this has to be only the creator of the page, because otherwise
with the ACL below:

the only person that can be in the owner group for a page is the
creator; there's no way for other people to edit it and thus get into
the 'owner' group. (I think)
Personally, I'd be wary of adding even more levels of ACL complexity to
dokuwiki -- I already spend more time than I'd like fiddling with the
ACL because people decide some projects are more secret than others,
group X can read all of this project but only edit one particular page,
etc. Making it even more complex seems like a recipe for greater
confusion by people trying to use our wiki; as it stands, I can explain
read/write permissions to people just fine, but trying to explain what a
moderator is really isn't going to work.
I suppose we could just ignore moderators entirely on our wiki (it's
internal, so there's no spam problem), but it seems like if there's a
way to resolve the underlying spam problem without complicating the ACL,
that would be better.
