Group search does not work correctly in Plone 5.2-python3 with Active Directory

[marcosamm]

I configured the plugin to connect to Active Directory and I can correctly list the groups at @@usergroup-groupprefs, however the search does not work correctly and only lists when we search for the exact name of the group.

Is this the default behavior?
Is there a way to configure the search or is it a bug?

I am also experiencing this. And it is not specific to Active Directory.
Bug or feature?

Did you try to append an asterisk *? I am pretty sure this was fixed once for users, not sure if groups were taken into account as well.

Any progress on this?

Not yet. But I am working a bit on this project (see #113) so if someone like to join me I can help out guiding.
