No, you always have to use CREATE USER. Btw., I think we're pondering
removing the secondary password file feature sometime; would you care to
explain why you think you need it?

ALTER GROUP foo ADD USER bar;
ALTER GROUP foo2 ADD USER bar;

CREATE GROUP foo WITH USER bar1, bar2;

> How can I remove a user from some group?

ALTER GROUP foo DROP USER bar;

RTFM :)
