Macgroup type removes 'root' user from 'admin' group #31

Closed dayglojesus closed 9 years ago

By default, OS X's admin group contains root.

When the Macgroup type resource is configured and applied, it will remove existing users in favour of the defined matrix -- even if the strict param is set to false. In the case of the admin group, this implies that root will be purged from membership. While this detail does nothing to impeded root's power over the system, we may wish to preserve the the original design.

I am less inclined to see this as a problem.
