Couldn't mlocate just reuse (or use in parallel) the same gid? Both
entities should have the same security implications, so separating the
user/group ownership wouldn't help much.

BTW another feature often asked for in *locate is the ability to merge
different databases (usually from different nfs filesystems from
different hosts) into a super locatedb. Would that extension be easy
in mlocate (which already has merging code inside)?
