Zeppelin groups and knox

Apologies in advance if this topic was raised multiple times here, but
still unable to find anything.

We've managed to set up Knox with SAML SSO and able to log into zeppelin as
a particular user.
However, group/roles mapping is lost between Knox and Zeppelin.

Again, we have proper list of groups in Knox in this or that way (saml
claim or LDAP), however it is not passed to Zeppelin anyhow.

Instead, Zeppelin is trying to find the LOCAL user and groups via
ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping.java[getUnixGroups]:210) - unable to return
groups for user ...

And no idea how to replace this ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping method.

Is it an achievable task at all?
Thanks a lot
