Description

It should be possible to authorize users and limit access either based on group membership (related: #308) or based on the fact that the user exists in Nextcloud because of another source such as LDAP (user_saml can do this).

Define how group membership and users provisioned through another source should affect login authorization; done means both restrictions are supported and their expected behavior is documented or tested.
