As a thought experiment, if instead of local xwiki users, you used an external LDAP instance and something like PWM https://github.com/pwm-project/pwm, people could self register via PWM which would give them login rights, and then an administrator could add the account to the appropriate xwiki group(s), or add the account to the appropriate LDAP group(s), with the LDAP groups being used in xwiki... I have no experience with doing this. Cheers
