Yes, this is exactly what I mean - an appropriate smoothing function ("shift") works fine, but simple group-based truncation does not; that this does not work has indeed been known since long before GROMACS was born. Maybe the "NVE cutoff" issue is merely semantic, where cutoff should be interpreted in a slightly restricted sense as "spherical cutoff method using group-based truncation"?
You should use neither, at least not for Coulomb. Only PME can be used for systems containing charges. For system containing exclusively neutral molecules, you can use a shift function, if the cut-off is longer than the range of the interaction. For water that would be roughly 1.2 nm.
