Title:
  [RFE][keystone][idm/ldap backend]: is it possible to use nested group
  to authorize users ?

Status in OpenStack Identity (keystone):
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hello,

  Keystone is interfaced with an LDAP backend (IDM) using a specific
  domain to authenticate/authorize users to access openstack APIs. We
  assign a role to a specific group to a specific project. In order to
  simplify IDM configuration, I would like to use nested group but I do
  not manage to configure it. I am not even sure it is possible.

  In general/standard configuration keystone is looking up for groups
  with a direct membship for the user. When we use nested group, as the
  user is not a direct member it does not work.

  Is there any option in keystone ldap configuration that could make
  keystone used  "memberOf" attributes of the user (instead of the
  group_member_attribute) to determine the group membership.

  Or Are there plans to get this added a feature in OpenStack?
