I'm not sure how dnf would be able to add a user to those groups or flag the need to do that.

In the event that what I wrote was ambiguous I just want to clarify what I was 
attempting to say.

Installs of brlapi and brltty packaged by fedora (as early as F27) resulted in 
the creation of the
brlapi group.  It did not add any users to that group.  I don't have the F27 
rpm to examine.
However, the group creation was most likely done by a post installation script 
the packager
included in the rpm.

Just like, for example wireshark, it is up to someone with admin/root 
privileges to add users
to a given group.

FWIW, the "groups" command can be used to list the current groups of a user's 
current shell
environment.
