1. Have you looked at grouper_groups_v?  It might be too heavyweight for what 
you need

2. In grouper 1.5, those cols are moving to the grouper_groups table, so the 
view might not be necessary

But yes, we can add this or other views to core grouper if people find them 
useful...  I already would like to see a better lightweight membership view:
