Description of problem:
IPA Web UI should have a feature to change non-posix group to posix group as cli can do with --posix option.

From Yi
I don't like dialog box. It is hard to grab in ui automation. How about just a textfield for GID? once user click "Change to a POSIX group" (checkbox), a textfield appears next to it asking for GID. If no user input in GID textfield, GID will be automatic generated.
