I'm part of a similar organization - we have local groups, regions, and all roll up into a national group.
My sense is that local groups can be managed as bundles quite effectively, which creates a type of membership admin. But it would be very useful to be able to limit membership, events, page admins etc. by region. National level would be served by existing functionality.
There is another dimension of this: an efficient way to manage overlapping management or board roles since a single person can hold multiple jobs and at multiple levels. There needs to be an easy way to show them in a directory with the right title for each group. This is a one to many application that doesn`t appear to be supported currently.
Visibility - pages, events, forums, directories etc - can be controlled by group memberships and tags. But restricting admin to a region is functionally different.
