Add API property for User to look up Membership?

I'm declining this idea due to limited support from the community.

When investigating a specific UserGroup (in the user group list) it is very easy to check the array of Members to find a specific user's name... However, given a specific user, it is a bit of a process to do a reverse lookup and find what group the user is a member of. 

 

While I know that I can always check privileges on specific operations for a user to make an educated guess on what group I belong to, it would be more elegant if I could just access a method or property such as:

 

CurrentUser.Memberof() 

 

and have it return the string for the UserGroup name.  {Operator, Technician, Developer, Administrator etc}

 

 

Cheers,
