Oh, that... It's actually a documentation bug. Both published books 
about RPM claim "owner" is accepted by %verify:
http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm/s1-rpm-inside-files-list-directives.html
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch09s05s05.html

However that has never been the case until recently (rpm >= 4.10 IIRC):
