We need to improve how we handle duplicate groups. Right now we just throw an error and fail. This results in support tickets. Instead we should have some kind of intuitive error thrown within the JIRA interface which offers a solution / workaround at the minimum. Ideally the logic would present the duplicate groups FQDNs and allow the user to pick which one they want to use.
