Description of problem: For accountability reasons, Beaker should reject tasks without an owner (just like it rejects tasks without license). Without an owner, there is no one to contact if there are problems with the test.
I have a patch for Beaker to record uploader and owner for newly uploaded tasks. It will refuse to accept tasks without an Owner field. I also have a patch for rhts-devel so that rhts-lint will complain about missing Owner field. Patches pushed to Gerrit for review.

The client change has been pushed into rhts-devel-4.39-1 to test please use beaker-stage repo yum upgrade --enablerepo=beaker-stage rhts\* But you will need to wait for the server side to be updated as well. This bz will move to ONQA when the server side is ready.
The webUI needs to catch that exception and pass it to flash() so that the user sees why the upload couldn't be accepted.
Agreed, friendly exception handling will be added to the web UI.
Beaker 0.7.1 has been released.
