That is in fact what I do. I have one TextCha question, "What is the
account creator password?" and the answer is given to people out of band.

I also have a SuperGroup whose members are all the other groups, and
(indirect) members of the SuperGroup are exempt from TextChas.

This way, one needs to establish contact before registering, and once
registered and added to at least one group, they can proceed with
minimal hinderance.

I'm pretty sure this is the case.
