      • Using the name "Something, else" for an external group as a 'page restriction' (view or edit) will not find the ldap group, even if it exists in LDAP, reporting 'invlaid user or group name(s): something, else"
      • same behavior for "Something\, else" with an escape before the comma
      • using the group chooser (choose groups) with "something, else" finds "something, else", which can be checked and 'select group(s) chosen.
      • this creates two new 'restriction' entries in the form, one called "Something\" (a backslash at the end) and one called "else".
      • strangely, saving these two restrictions results in a restriction to "something,else" (no space in the name) which doesn't exist.and a restriction to the author. Both can be removed normally.

            Hi, please, if you can, resolve this simple bugfix asap - it is a bottleneck for our organization. Thanks, Garry.

            Thanks for the report, James. This would appear to be a regression of CONF-5556, which fixed commas in group names previously.
