Just as there is a "Default Role(s)" function, it would be nice to have new members auto-added to a specified Group(s).

Hi,

this seems to me like very specific request, I'm not sure if this should be added to the MonoX core functionality, please give us more context so we can understand your request better.

Note that this is easy to implement, if you need help let us know.

Regards

stated slightly differently....
In instances(MonoX CMS installations) where the "Groups" functionality is fully utilized, it would be useful to have some way of automatically adding users to groups.
Method option #1) Just like there is <add key="DefaultUserRoles"/>, if there was a <add key="DefaultUserGroups"/> newly registered users would automatically be included in specified content Groups, without having to go through the process to join them.
Alternate Method option #2) A different way of achieving the same goal would be to have the ability to add Roles to Group membership, just as you currently add users. result: If you could add the "Users" Role to membership of a particular Group, then all new users that register would automatically be included in the specified Group.
make sense?
