Plugin to admin panel is possible (and if its not possible where I need it I can always add a hook..).
As admin I know Cotonti.com uses hidden groups (although not actively), so there's your user. It's also a way to set rights for a specific user, without publicly putting him inside a group (he's the only member of a hidden group).

In fact it's not a problem making it configurable, because it's only a matter of enabling/disabling pieces of code. There's no need to rewrite parts just to get a different setting. The three levels add up to eachother.

I've just committed a changeset which moves the hidden groups functionality to a plugin. Right now there's nothing new yet, but this clears the way for adding configuration options. See ticket 559 for details.

Added 12 hours 39 minutes later:

Changeset 1484 adds three hiding modes:

1. Hide only groups (original method)
2. Hide groups and members whose maingroup is hidden (now the default method)
3. Hide groups and members which have any of their subgroups hidden

Note that members are only hidden in the userlist. Their activity on the site is still visible.
It's possible to allow groups other than administrators to see hidden groups. Authentication level '1' is used for that.
