Personally I've only felt the need for the name of the group. I'll let
others chime in, but it's not much of a bother adding if they are needed.  
Or even doing the whole thing as a recipe (although Group() would probably
be used very often).

Hmm... what's the result of a grep for 'FmtPageName' of the recipes?
