Markers do not have an "Owner"
They have a Creator, which is stored ine the Marker name.

Current workaround is to use the MarkerDeleted eventhandler, it already has a _local parameter. If _local is true, then the deletion happened locally.
Add the EH on every player, and when a _local is true, you know the local player has deleted the marker.
