I understand that I can achieve this functionality by following the instructions in https://support.office.com/en-us/article/allow-members-to-send-as-or-send-on-behalf-of-an-office-365-group-admin-help-0ad41414-0cc6-4b97-90fb-06bec7bcf590
However, this process is very onerous. It simply shifts the onus of performing the correct actions form the 3rd party recipient to the original poster. Also, each new group member needs to be given the right to post as group. That's a lot of work for the users and the admins.
I'd like a way to permanently set this behaviour for the whole group.

if you are using Outlook 2013/2016 (not OWA) you can try to set the From address as default using a third-party add-in for Outlook. Google for SetFrom utility, for example.

It's no different than sending messages to a "regular" DG, if you want to include all the DG members you need to make sure that the DG address is added, which usually translates to pressing the Reply All button. But no, there is no functionality to configure the reply-to address in Groups.
