Hi mastermueller,

indeed, this is not the expected behavior, especially when in the docs at User Management :: ownCloud Documentation it reads

Group administrators have the rights to create, edit and delete users in their assigned groups.

For your convenience, I filed those issues at https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/39475 and https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/39476
