That will confuse the existing code handling it. I maintain it would be better to split up the variables; the purpose is too broadened otherwise.
Not really. There's certainly no mileage in having a standard permission to the effect of "can change groups", and then some other variable saying what groups each specific group-changing group can change; the former is implicit if you're included in the latter.
It makes more sense to keep all group permissions in $wgGroupPermissions. That's what it's there for.
