list of users approved for any list on the site

Some sites would like to allow a specified list of users to subscribe without administrator approval to any list on the site. For sites with many users, many lists, and a lot of turnover, approving all subscriptions is a lot of work.
In many applications it would probably be a better idea to have a member plugin for the enterprise member database, but not all sites will be that sophisticated, or they may worry about the security implications of exposing those databases to Mailman.
