Nextcloud 27 exposes the system address book with read-only contacts for all system users. It's common to have Nextcloud groups for departments, teams and projects.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a CATEGORIES property to the system contacts based on the display names of a user's Nextcloud groups.
This requires users to be allowed to see other user's groups.
