We now have some dept-based group managers asking "before I add a person to group X, how can I find out the set of permissions and services are granted to that group?". A perfectly reasonable question.

In general you cannot answer that question. You have no real knowledge of the use of group membership by external applications. Better might be to document what the group is for and what kind of people belong in it.
