Make Group Membership Searchable

[#1]

I would like to be able to search for group membership using the advanced querying capabilities. Some of my queries depend on group memership and there is currently no way to do this. If the advanced query allowed me to search contacts  with a "member of" query type where the value could be set to a group or subgroup name this would be very helpful and improve the flexibility of the query capabilities. I have had to convert several of my groups into fields that I can then use for dynamic membership but this takes a lot of effort and requires adminstrative access to the data bases and makes me involve IT. I would like to be able to write a query to select contacts from multiple groups without having to involve my IT department.

Would be a good feature... if you need it now, have a look at Group IT:

I second this addition to the main software.  It would be good to search for it and also to have that as dynamic rules for membership of another group.  If you are in abc group, you are automatically in xyz group.  So if a new contact is added to abc group, they are automatically in the xyz group.
