Sometimes we get HelpDesk users complaining that they can see tickets
assigned to an other group, a group to which they themselves do not
belong.

Upon investigation, we see that the user might belong to a group name
like "Long Group Name", but they're seeing a ticket that is assigned to
a group named "Group".  Note that "Group" is a substring of "Long Group
Name".

I could see how this might happen, given the space-delimited GroupList
field in the User table, and the fact that "Long Group Name" contains
spaces, but the reason I'm puzzled is that it seems like it really
should be happening MORE OFTEN, given all the group names we've got
which are sub-strings of other group names.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this, without having to rename a bunch
of our bloomin groups...?

thanks --
John
