I would first ask myself why someone needs to be a member of more than 
35 BE groups... This situation isn't manageable anymore.

Even if you need to specify the access in such a way you will probably 
need many people to be part of fixed combinations of groups. Making 
combined groups (groups which have several subgroups) will make it 
easier to manage memberships of several levels of 'superusers'.

At the same time, a naming scheme which reflects the hierarchical 
structures of your BE user groups will make it easier to find the right 
groups in the list.

This will increase the total number of BE user groups, but will decrease 
the number of groups a BE user is member of.
