Interestingly, it appears that accountsservice has a build-time option to enable extra admin groups (extra_admin_groups), but the version in focal (0.6.55-0ubuntu12~20.04.4) has a debian patch that ignores it. That patch was recently reworked to not ignore the option: https://salsa.debian.org/freedesktop- team/accountsservice/-/commit/b1724af16828c08543cfae167daad46269051028. This would require version 0.6.55-2.
