Well that is somewhat "on purpose" the goal of the project is to only
have to maintain groups like this:

dn: cn=testers,ou=Group,dc=marcher,dc=name
objectClass: groupOfNames
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: top
cn: testers
gidNumber: 5001
member: uid=john.doe,ou=People,dc=marcher,dc=name

(mind the "member" attribute) with rfc2307bis posixGroup is auxilliary
and libnss-ldap should be able to handle that. I just can't figure out
how :(
