Members of shared groups cannot be select in issue boards
Summary
Issue boards can be used to display the workload of people in a project. Therefore an issue board is created and the columns are set to reflect the issue per assignee.
While almost every assignee can be selected, it's not possible to select members of a project, that are inherited from a shared group.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a group without projects and assign two users to that group.
- Create a group and assign two users, which are distinct from the users in the group created in 1.
- Share the group from 1. with the project from 2.
- Add a new issue board to the project from 2. and create columns by assignee.
- You'll be able to select the two members (see 2.) but you can't select the users that are inherited from 1.
What is the current bug behavior?
Inherited users from shared groups cannot be selected in issue boards to be represented as columns.
What is the expected correct behavior?
Members of shared groups should be selectedable in issue boards to be shown as a board column.

/cc @manage-sig @jeremy This demonstrates another short come of sharing groups to emulate teams.
