Yes, but it's more restrictive than I thought. It would
be great if there was a mean to use groups as a kind of
parentheses to group any kind of elements. Now that <group>
is used to group tasks, will it be possible to use it
later on to group other kinds of elements? Or will we be
out of luck because <group> is already used for tasks?
