The additions contributed by SARA in early 2008, 
3.2.6p20-snap.1182974819, dealt with adding fairshare for secondary 
groups (though I haven't looked into the code very deeply).

It would be equally beneficial to be able to control other things using 
the GROUPCFG mechanism allowing the most permissive access as determined 
by secondary groups as well, perhaps changing the effective group for 
maui's housekeeping to keep things easy.

We are currently using a departmental name as the primary login group 
but individual faculty members in these departments have also allocated 
$$$ of their own too. Setting limits now becomes harder to do, and 
perhaps that's not the correct approach at all and can be done entirely 
with fairshare.  But it certainly would be handy to be able to use both 
primary and secondary groups to set limits.
