Thank you for the ultra-fast response.  Whether or not the user should
or should not have to deal with user groups on a Unix groups is not
really the point the point.  The point is that the tool allows access to
such mingling and at times gives false information and error messages.

What's the successor to users-admin now?

Title:
  users-admin tool enforces policy it has no authority over

Status in “gnome-system-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  While some people frown upon capital letters in group names there is
  nothing in Debian policy that disallows them.  Yet, users-admin will
  refuse to operate on such groups and even throw out incorrect
  information as in "Please set a valid group name consisting of a lower
  case letter followed by lower case letters and numbers."
