FreeNAS 8 RC5: Creating users creates bogus groups

Description
I created a group called "Users" for my users, then proceeded to create the user accounts but there is no "Default Group" field on the user creation dialog, so FreeNAS 8 RC5 automatically created a new group for each user using the same name as the user.
This meant I had a bunch of groups called fred, jim, bob, sue etc. that I had to delete after I had modified each of the users and changed their default group to what I wanted it to be in the first place, "Users".
1) Please add a "Default Group" field to the User creation dialog so that the administrator may choose which group the user is initially a member of
2) When modifying a user, the "menu" type selection widget that is used to select from available groups is really not practical when there are so many groups that the menu disappears off the bottom of the screen (ie. bottom of the browser page). This UI element needs to be changed to a list box with scroll bar.

This is getting silly - each of these comments is resulting in email spam. I've had 20+ emails so far, telling me the same thing (thanks for fixing btw!) :)
