Is there anyway for a non-admin (e.g. a space admin) to edit group membership?

I'm the space admin for a few spaces and I need to assign admin and edit privileges to over 20 users for each of these spaces.  The same permissions apply for each space, but since I'm not a confluence admin, I have to manually add each user and be very careful about what check-boxes I check for each one.  It would be much easier if I was allowed to create a group or edit an existing group.  There was a time when I could do this many years ago.  In fact, there are groups in place that I used to be able to edit using some sort of plugin, but since then, it seems that's not available.  Does anyone know a good way to deal with this.

Hi @Mark DeMichele 

You are right that you need Confluence Administrator or System Administrator global permission to edit group membership. Can you not ask your System admins to create a group for you and add those 20 users in that group, so that you can assign permissions to that group in the spaces you are admin of ? There are third party plugins available eg - 'Delegated Group Management in Confluence' which can let space admins manage user groups, you will need to talk to your system admins to get that plugin installed.
