description: Currently we store the ghost attribute as plain name for master domains and FQDN for subdomains. Also, the way the ghost users are stored to the cache is configurable, which poses a large number of problems.

Mainly getting (user,domain) tuple from the string that is the ghost attribute is complex and fragile. Consider a group entry such as:
{{{
cn: subgroup@subdom
ghost: someuser
ghost: anotheruser@subdom
}}}

Now in order to print all group members as FQDN (which is the default for AD provider), the code needs to iterate over the ghost attributes and parse them into (name,domain) and optionally re-add the domain..

We should store the ghost attributes as "user@domain" always and never allow any other format. => Currently we store the name attribute as plain name for master domains and FQDN for subdomains. Also, the way the FQDNs are stored to the cache is configurable, which poses a large number of problems.
