Steps to reproduce:

Installed TB 91.0.3
Auto-setup of CardDav address book (Nextcloud)
All addresses are imported / synced

Actual results:

Address groups / categories are not included in import / sync of addresses

Expected results:

Groups / categories should be imported / synced

I confirm.
installed TB 91
auto-setup cardav addressbook Gmail
all contacts are imported
but no groups

NextCloud groups appear to use the CATEGORIES vCard property which we don't yet support. I've no idea how Google does it, or how to put Google contacts into groups to begin with.

Will the CATEGORIES vCard for the sync of NextCloud groups property be implemented some time?

Some time yes but no concrete plans. Patches certainly accepted!
