I went through the outstanding "doc" group requests, there are currently
only 2 of those now remaining (I'm waiting on replies to emails for those
two).

Of the other two groups, there are currently 11 for the "php" group and 78
for the "pecl" group.

I didn't tackle this, but I have changed master so it that shows the "note"
that folks enter when applying for their account, to make it easier/quicker
to scan the list (e.g. for spam, and for me to find the "[group: doc]"
requests).

You're right there, the two (approving an account, granting the appropriate
commit karma) should almost always be done at the same time. Anyone looking
to help with the account requests should have SVNROOT karma, or ask for it.
