- Follow reproducer steps explained in 683, nested groups work as expected. OK
- go to advanced tab and disable the nested groups checkbox:

Research direction
Start with the reproducer steps referenced in issue 683, then inspect how the advanced nested-groups checkbox is read when LDAP group membership is evaluated. Confirm the disabled setting still permits nested groups, and consider the issue done when disabled nested groups no longer work while enabled nested groups continue to work.
