Title:
  groups syntax broken

Status in Init scripts for use on cloud images:
  Triaged
Status in “cloud-init” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When adding a user, the 'groups' keyword only works if multiple groups
  are given in useradd syntax, i.e. as a single string without spaces

  groups: adm,sudo,cdrom

  I'm guessing the value is passed directly to the --groups command line option 
of useradd. 
  Any of the more intuitive syntax forms (including the one in the 
documentation at 
http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/examples.html) do not seem to 
work. I've tried

  groups: [adm, sudo, cdrom]

  groups: adm, sudo, cdrom

  groups:
    - adm
    - sudo
