Title: #5784: proxy: allow removing group members

Hi,

if the two domains are managed separately it can of course happen that two 
groups have the same GID. For lookups by GID the group from the first domain 
listed in the `domains` option will win. A lookup by name, especially with a 
fully-qualified name, will most probably resolve both groups.

Given that the `id` command will do lookups by GID an `id` lookup for the user 
from the second domain which is a member of the group with the duplicated GID 
will return the wrong group name. In this sense I would say we do not support 
this kind of configuration.

Additionally, the filesystem is doing access control based with respect to 
groups with the help of the GID using the same GID in different domains might 
give users access to files of users from the other domain, which is typically 
not expected.

HTH

bye,
Sumit
