I could reproduce your scenario. It's a default behavior. On Web Access, the drop down only shows the recently used members list or just Search option. But if you select someone not in list [global]\Dev Approver, you'll get validation error message like the screenshot below:

VALIDUSER adds all users in the project. Remove that tag to show just the members of the other team. The "for" on that tag only restricts members of that group from using that set of values.
