Much better way imo. The group docker is root-equivalent and that is always a sign of danger. And I don't see any disadvantage to taking ownership of this one file.

@Xerus if I understand correctly, whoever can write to this socket can get root-equivalent privileges too. So giving someone access to this socket via ACL has the same security effect as adding that person to the docker group.
