And what that one-time override would be ?
"" ? Impossible, it has to be a valid group (it goes to /etc/passwd).
# pw useradd moo4
# pw useradd moo5 -g nobody
# pw useradd moo6 -g moo6
pw: group `moo6' does not exist
# pw useradd moo7 -g ""
pw: group `' is not defined
# grep -i moo /etc/passwd
moo4:*:1003:1003:User &:/home/moo4:/bin/sh
moo5:*:1004:65534:User &:/home/moo5:/bin/sh
