Yes, whenever there's a non-existent page there are arguably two
correct choices, and for a variety of reasons pre-dating the [[Group/]]
markup my choice ended up being "page same name as group" as opposed
to "$DefaultName within group".
With what we have available now, if I had it to do all over
again I might go with setting something like
$DefaultName = '{$Group}';
to mean "home page is named the same as the group". But I don't
know how much I'll break by changing things here, or if this is
really the correct approach to take.
