Description

When a local group named "group" is present, any sync of an external group (from an IDP) with the same name fails silently.

There should be a WARN like this: "Cannot create externally managed group named XX because a local group with the same name already exists; principal Y will miss group memberships" in the logs to make this problem obvious and to ease the debugging of this situation.
