+The module also assigns special properties to two local groups, if
+they exist:
+
+• If the local group ‘nss-nonlocal-users’ exists, then nonlocal users
+  will be automatically added to it.  Furthermore, if a local user is
+  added to this group, then that user will inherit any nonlocal gids
+  from a nonlocal user of the same name, as supplementary gids.
