Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
Steps:
1. add a new user 'bob'; bob gets his own group 'bob'
2. add another user 'bob2'; bob2 is in the group 'bob'
I believe this is very unintuitive behavior, although it can be justified in some mass user add scenarios.
There is also a slight security risk as an admin might not double check group membership.

Thank you for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use?
