Adding this functionality would be so useful to our club. Like other clubs, we have a management group with restricted access to certain directories and events, so we do not want to allow non-management members to add themselves to this group. Allowing addition to other groups would be OK.
What about a solution of adding an element to "Group" called "permit addition by non-admin members". Members requesting to add a group from within their Member Profile could then have the request validated by checking this field for the group they selected. If the value in the field is "No", adding group membership is denied for the member, forcing an Admin to perform the function.
