For whatever reason I can't edit the Grouper External Users page, so here is 
my use case:

Grouper self-service use case.

Requirements

A member of the public is legally allowed to access library resources at a 
University. These resources can be physical or electronic. The electronic 
resources may require log on through a Shibboleth IDP before access is 
allowed. Therefore the following are required:

Ability for a user who comes in off the street who does not have an account 
at a member institution in the Shib federation to self-register for access to 
electronic resources. The process will include registration with enough 
details for creation of an account in an IDP (probably local), and inclusion 
of that account in a group called something like “Walk-in users”. 
Membership of this group should automatically expire following a period of 
no-use, or at a set date.

In both cases the group would be used to limit access to resources. In the 
first use case the local IDP would expose membership of this group is a way 
such that service providers can allow or disallow access to resources. An 
attribute is already defined in the UK Federation for this purpose.
