then how about this;

add an 'alias' to you '.bashrc', like 'usernew'  that will call a script
that takes name entry as argument and passes it to

  useradd -G 100,20,63,1010,2020 $1

that way you would not have to retype groups again and get what you want.

if you had several different group groupings, you could have different
aliases with names to describe the groups.
