Well, using a fixed list does work, adding every item as a group. It's
when a fact (host-specific variable) is used that a problem occurs:
the value for the first host is used for all hosts.

I have removed the test_items variable and submitted an issue:

Yeah, that was probably because I went through stripped down a role to
a playbook in alphabetical order. :-)

That is my point. I would expect every host to be put in their own
group. If you us a fact but not with_items it works. I have included
an example in the issue.
