Add contact directly to group

[jakecronin]

Is there any way to create a contact to a group?

My current solution is to
1 - create a contact
2 - pull all contacts
3 - find the contact that I just created
4 - use this contact ID to add this contact to a group.

It would be ideal to be able to specify a groupID while creating a contact, but I can't seem to be able to do this. Is it possible or are there any better workarounds?
