I noticed in the group(5) manpage that the second field is used
for group passwords.  I am curious as to how exactly a group password
would be used if software were to make use of it.  Would it grant
permission to someone not in the group if they gave the password,
or would it require an additional password if you were indeed in
the group?  Or something completely different?
