Description of problem: When creating user from who are the posixUser instance with 389-console, it's possible to activate checkbox in the "Posix user" and define UID, shell and other posixUser attributes. But when creating a group with 389-console, there are no tab or attributes to specify a GID number, and administrator must go into directory service editing and manually append attributes objectclass=posixGroup and gidNumber, that can be annoying when creating several groups: 1. Create a group from "Users and groups" tab 2. Move to "Directories and servers" page 3. Find a server 4. Open "Directory server" 5. Proceed to directory tab 6. Find a group 7. Open properties 8. Click "Advanced" button 9. Add objectclass: posixgroup 10. Set GID number and if this feature would be enabled, all steps from 2 to 10 will be avoided. Adding objectlass: posixGroup into a group template does not solve problem, because there no field to specify gidNumber in group creation dialog. Suggestion: when creating user with "useradd" utility, user and group with the same name are created. It can be very usefull in 389-console to have such optional ability.
