Public bug reported:

When trying to bulk add group members, I can only see 100 of the
potential members.

The 'Add members' dialog says: 'Only showing first 100 results of 148'.

This is a hard code limit (see below) and there isn't any way to select
the remaining potential members.

Some fix options are
1. Provide a config entry that allows increasing the lookup limit
2. Add code to 'page' through the lookup list 100 members at a time
3. You might simply filter by Institution to provide a way to limit the list of potential members

Fix 2 and/or 3 could easily be accomplished by adapting code from
/admin/users/search.php.


My work around is in place - I just raised the limit to 200 and this will hold until the next upgrade.
