[rt-users] Where is the 'privileged' group?

I know I can make a user un-privileged. But all the users I'll be adding
over the next week or so will need to have some rights, just not the right
to add themselves to groups. I thought 'unprivileged' was an automatically
created group I could manage like any other, so that all privileged users
inherit the same rights unless and until an admin adds the user to a group
with more rights later on. For instance, *all* our users must be able to
take tickets, but not all of them should be able to add themselves to
groups. Do I just need to make a "staff" group and add everyone to it? I
can, I just had it in my head that RT had a way to do this automatically
for all users not in any user-defined group.
