What about retaining these delegated membership groups but having each of
these groups have direct membership in ubuntumembers?  This would make the
relationship of these teams with ubuntumembers explicit which provides the
benefit of making it easier for the CC to keep track of the teams which do
grant membership as well as identify teams which weren't intended to give
membership but do incidentally.
