It does place your home directory in the staff group. However, this wouldn't stop an admin from parusing your hierarchy, so changing the group to admin ensures that no non-admin users can paruse your hierarchy. Personally, on every machine I set up, the non-admins have thier home hierarchies chowned to username:staff, admin to username:admin, and Applications/Applications (Mac OS 9), System Folder are chowned to root:admin.
