Hi everyone,
This is Michael Andreacchio from the Confluence team. Thank you for your interest in this suggestion.
After reviewing this suggestion we have decided that we are unlikely to prioritise it for the foreseeable future. Simply put, the interest in this effort verses the effort required to complete don't weigh up against the set of our other priorities (more on this below). Therefore, we are closing this ticket to align with our current priorities and communicate them to our customers.
You can read more about how we prioritise what to implement here.
To learn more about our recent investments in Confluence Data Center, please check our public roadmap and our dashboards containing recently resolved issues, and current work and future plans.
Kind regards,
Confluence Data Center
When applying groups to a user you can be presented with a list of every group on the system with checkboxes on a single page, which doesn't scale well. eg: admin/users/editusergroups-start.action?username=jmasson
Consider using an autocomplete frother for achieving this task.

[CONFSERVER-24104] Use an autocomplete text input for adding groups to users
Thanks for your interest in this issue.
This request is considered a potential addition to our longer-term roadmap.
We'll typically review this request at least once a year, at which point we’ll consider whether we need to alter its status.
Cheers,
Confluence Product Management

added a comment - There are industry standard solutions for displaying large lists. Like iTunes for instance.
In the past the list population was better than the current version. I have more than a 1000 groups.
You could start by filtering out System Groups and Space groups. System groups are usually a lot less. Maybe 10 or so. But they are more crucial to the admin. Because space moderators can add people to space groups on space level.
Secondly you could populate a list while typing the space name or space key. Show both search fields in one UI. Sometimes I know the spacekey sometimes I know the space name or a word in the space name. You have already done this concept in Macro search in Rich Text editor.
