I can not reproduce this. How I tested:

  1. created user (user1) with these permissions (see screenshot)
  2. created user group with user1 and user2 called "testing"
  3. logged in as user1 and created survey
  4. went to survey permissions and added user2

@tibor.pacalat: I left out your 2nd step and have NOT created an additional user group. The new user was still within the default user group.

For me it failed at your 4th step, I am not able to see other users, see screenshot.

I think it's already reported : and it's not really an issue.
Related to user group : see all don't mean see all if you separate by user group

Must find history …

I don't know if this is really an issue. I think this is by design that it doesn't work for default group for security reasons.

Well, if I am assigning global permissions to see all users, I'd expect the user to be able to see all users ...!?

I'm OK with Mazi, but it's still related to Group member can only see own group

Group member can only see own group : to OFF, such user can see all user.

I don't have solution without potential broke some instance where some company hosts different user type …

Except the code (i do what you want) what is the desired behaviour with/without "Group member can only see own group" on each list
