I think that https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-151 would create 
the proper set of groups, but I have two questions.

In addition to removing the manual steps to create the necessary include 
and exclude groups, it may be that sites will only wish to provision the 
resultant _overall group. Should the other _ groups be marked with an 
attribute that can be used to deselect them for provisioning (or perhaps 
it should be the other way around)?

Will the substrings following the _ be configurable? Eg, in your example 
with org21, perhaps we'd rather see the resulting included and excluded 
group be named org21, and would choose to apply suffixes along these 
lines: org21_from_sor (ie, as determined from its System of Record), 
org21_include, org21_sorandinclude, and org21_exclude.
