Issue #13078 has been updated by eric sorenson.

Status changed from Needs Decision to Rejected

I agree with Daniel in update 5 - the group name is simply the namevar. 

Bill Tong, you can effect this in a more idempotent way by declaring your new 
group name ought to have the desired GID and the old group name should be 
marked `ensure => absent`.
