| Could you elaborate?

The only part in installing a port that needs to be done as root is the
actual installation of the package.  All the previous stages can be done as
a user, nobody, for instance.  When you use only @owner or @group, it
reverts to the current user, which is root/wheel if you're doing all that
as root, or to the current user if not.
