Hi Johannes.
Why don't you want to reserve a set of bits in group number, which means
'allow to work with unpriveledged users', that bits should not cross existing
users (hardcoded in various files in kernel), all new code can use that
groups.
This effectively limits number of groups, but hell, number of them was so
small just a year or two ago and no one complained (although that was a
reason for connector and gennetlink to appear).
I've read a thread about problems limiting 2^32 group space, while no
user has even more than 10...
