@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Jan 23, 2020):

This behavior is evident in other forms as well. For example, when assigning a device to a cluster, initially only non-grouped clusters are present in the cluster field's dropdown menu. The user must select a cluster group to view the clusters assigned to it: It is not possible to view all clusters (both grouped and non-grouped) at once.

The user must select a cluster group to view the clusters assigned to it: It is not possible to view _all_ clusters (both grouped and non-grouped) at once.
