Is it possible at some point to have problems if I set attribute weight to be visible for Configurable products as well? I want to set the weight for a configurable product in order to display it on product listing and I don't want to add a new attribute. I am asking to be sure that shipping rate will not be influenced by this setting.

After searching for a long time and failing to extract a solution from mage core files, I created an attribute which does the same as status attribute. I named that attribute as Archive (Yes/No). This new attribute will justify whether a product is discontinued or not.
Atlast, I filter all my product listing, product details and home page related to this new attribute Archive only.
I am planning to write a MVC action, which will change all the products status as enabled and at the same time triggering the Archive as yes for the status = disabled products. I will share the code here soon.
Group price will be applied across the board, however, you can still supply an over-ride on the associated products tab.
Let's say, for example, you set the grouped price for General to $10.00. You can see in the screenshot below that I have specified a fixed increase of $5.00 for the Blue t-shirt option. Thus, the price on the frontend would be $10.00 but if you select the Blue option, it will be $15.00.
That satisfy your needs?

You can specify weight for each on simple products which is a part of configurable product. So make sure that those two values match and you should be fine.
