You may have misunderstood my question. In that UI there is no way to  
_add_ an _existing_ group to an _existing_ user, not _change_ an  
existing users _primary_ group. The accounts interface allows one  
create a _new_ group by clicking the plus to add a user but then  
switch the popup to a group, and then add existing users to your new  
group. But if I want to add a user who already has an account and home  
directory, to a group already on the machine, the UI you suggest does  
not allow for that.
