The listing is as seen from outside the user namespace.

All of above is correct.

So you are saying this is expected behavior? My experiment with
prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 1) didn't help either. I expected the owner and
group in the proc file listing (as seen from init_user_ns) to be
'nobody' since the process is really running as uid=99 ("nobody") in
the init_user_ns. What am I missing?
I will try to go over the set_dumpable() call-sites tomorrow and get more info.
