Yeah I can see that! Unfortunately "creage group" functionality is just what I need at the moment.
I've used the UtilExtension as a basis for writing my own version of Group called GroupEx that allows for creating groups in the same way as creating users - the code is almost a carbon copy which makes me wonder why WiX didn't support creating groups straight out of the box!? Now banging my head against the wall - for some reason my embedded wixlib is not being attached to the msi file being compiled even though my extension dll is being used (ie: I've got a GroupEx table in my MSI as expected but the custom action fragments are missing - weird.
