No, there is no way to accomplish that with the auto creation process.
I’ve thought in the past about some way to assign either default
permissions or membership to new users, or some way to grant permissions to
all authenticated users.  However, another part of me says that those
methods are just work-arounds for proper group and permissions management -
a big part of which it’s making sure that all of the extensions support
some method of providing group membership.

I’m interested to hear what others think.
