If we distribute them with specific plugins (which are just one of many that
are included in the group) then I'm not clear how you would choose which
plugin to associate it with.  For example, if you wanted a group that
included tomcat, cxf, ejb, and clustering which plugin would get "ownership"
of the group?

A user can create servers out of plugin groups.   This has been
demonstrated to work in little G assemblies (using maven) or the
customer server assembly portlet or deploy/assemble gshell command.
A user can choose whatever plugin groups they want to construct their
servers.   Feel free to check these out in the latest G 2.2 trunk.

Yes, I know that the plugingroups you have created work and can be used to build server assemblies. That wasn't really the question.

The paragraph from me was in response to David's suggestion that the plugingroups should be distributed with the plugin which they are most closely affiliated. It's my opinion there isn't a consistent system that makes one plugin the obvious choice to contain the aggregate (as demonstrated in the example I presented).
