I feel we've produced inconsistencies here, and given I added the
group membership support for OS X, it's largely my fault :)
We've too closely modelled the tools for managing users/groups on
various platforms, and I actually feel like we should break group
membership out into a separate type, so it's easier to express
semantics like:
* ensure nigel is not a member of group admin, leave group alone otherwise
* ensure nigel is a member of group admin, leave group alone otherwise
without requiring that the user nigel or group admin are even managed by Puppet.
