This is the intended behaviour (thats why they're called special
groups) and AFAIK it cannot be changed. But why would you change it,
is there any problem with it? They are assigned by the authentication
method on login, so there's no point in storing them when the user is
logged off and they can be changed remotely (on Shibboleth IdP) and
become effective on next DSpace login.

You can see your current effective group membership on the profile page.
