I am experimenting with sshfs as a (possibly) more secure alternative to nfs (better client authentication). Running sshfs mounts from fstab along with the "allow_other" and "default_permissions" options gives non-root users the right access permissions to the mounted file system (which contains home directories for all users). However, writing new files in the user's home directory in the mounted file system results in files with root ownership in the user's home directory!
Am I trying to do something with sshfs that shouldn't be done, or is this a bug, or have I not set some crucial option? The server and the client are both up to date Arch machines with the same uids and gids for all users. I have pinged upstream on sshfs, but have yet to receive a reply.

How does your fstab entry look like? I bet you make the ssh connection as 'root' user. Try to replace it to other user e.g.
.... myuser@myserver:/home/myuser ....
