I wonder if there is any way to convert group names (semi)automatically to keywords, if need be by manipulating an export file?

I need to import references into a different system and would like to avoid manually going through all the groups and assigning keywords to the refs.

You can have Bookends export the names of the groups that a reference is in (in the format, use g). Perhaps you could create an export format using this?

Thanks for the suggestion. After realizing I had less groups and subgroups than I thought (still around 100) I ended up manually going through all the groups and assigning keywords to the references (after flattening the group hierarchy). Took a couple of hours but worth the effort!

I hope you did that with Global Change...

I certainly did

Assigned a keyboard shortcut to Global Change > Change Field, worked pretty fast that way.
