Description

Common usecase with managing AD groups is, that we support change of group DN on system. DN is synchronized by system for groups synchronization.
This DN is provisioned in memberOf attribute to users.

Current merge strategy does not support DN change, because new value is not in users provisioning history.
For example if group DN is changed, then deleting relevant role from user will not remove his group on AD.

This can also easily happen on other systems.

We need to discuss possible solutions.

This is quite an issue for us. Potentially every project can come across this.
Possible workaround is to use an "authoritative merge" strategy - but this cannot be done everywhere. On the contrary - # of projects where we can use AM is relatively small.

Please try to think of solution, workaround, anything. We can call and make some discussion.
