Bug Description

Implementation:

The CSV header can have multiple 'group' fields added to it, e.g.:

username,firstname,lastname,email,password,group,group,group

Then for each user, group names can be specified. e.g.:

nigel,Nigel,McNie,<email address hidden>,password1,"Our Community","Ponies",

In the above example, nigel is added to the "Our Community" and "Ponies" groups, even though there are three columns in which groups could be specified.

Group names are unique which makes this work.
