Right after I sent that I realized that sspi-group was a bad idea, not sure if that's even a thing. Tried to cancel as it was still in moderation, but it made it through anyways! You are right, it is very windows specific. I can make it windows-group as you said, and resubmit.

It's not clear to me whether Windows groups have exact equivalents in
other OSes. If we think the concept is generic, I'd be okay with
spelling the keyword system-group or the like. The patch you
proposed looked pretty Windows-specific though. Somebody with more
SSPI knowledge than me would have to opine on whether "sspi-group"
is a reasonable name.
