As Cos mentioned the currently supported method for injecting
groupings to user-defined metrics is to use the Python interface
(C/C++ also work).

We currently lack bindings for Perl/Ruby/<your favourite programming
language> however if you think you can contribute code for that,
please let us know.

I'll try to add grouping support to gmetric, however, the new DSO
interface is a more flexible way of adding metrics IMHO.

Cheers,

Bernard
