misleading example in groups documentation

[anonymous]

There's something to the effect of
user.groups = [group list]
and
user.permissions = [permission list]

which would of course give an error, since those are managers. You need a .all() to get an iterable.

It's not misleading, it should work like that. See django.db.models.manager::ForeignRelatedObjectsDescriptor.__set__
