Prevent closed/moderated groups

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Can we do a little customization to prevent posting anything except open groups. Perhaps admins can have the option to edit a group and make it moderated in the rare case that's appropriate.

It's not clear in the moderation process sometimes when they are not created as open - for example I approved this group http://groups.drupal.org/yemen without realizing it was invite-only. I've just set it as open. Perhaps they were wondering why no one ever joined.

What about deprecated groups?

For example, http://groups.drupal.org/aegir-hosting-system is now a "closed" group, presumably so people cannot join pointlessly. However, people cannot remove their memberships, either.
