Is there any reason why you work with pre-defined

(default, block unregistered users, users with the sysop right), why not
base the protection on the available groups available in the user_groups
table?
It works based off a combination of $wgProtectionActions and
$wgProtectionGroups or somesuch, I believe.
Part of the reason user_groups isn't used is because implicit
membership isn't stored there, so protecting against anonymous
editing, or autoconfirmed editing, wouldn't work.
