Some user groups have restrictions, which are conditions that a user must meet in order to be added to the group. This is specified by the RestrictedGroups config.
Currently the only way to see the group restrictions is by reading the configuration.
We could display this information somewhere on Special: ListGroupRights. Exactly how tbc.

Perhaps we could add an extra column for restrictions, though this would take up a lot of space given that it's rare to have a group with restrictions. Though it may get less rare.
I think that adding a third column to the main table may make it less comfortable to use, especially on narrower screens.
What if we created a separate section for restricted groups (similar to namespace restrictions) and then every restricted group in the main table would link to the new one below.
