Yes 770 for folders 660 for files seeded by the user ids and their ssh keys in the host playbook that is in the review queue.  Changes to the host playbook in the review queue should come later for this group based model.

The real question is what do operators prefer?  Single user (non-root), Multi-user (non-root), or Single user (root).
