Thanks for your reply Randy. I thought this feature was just missing in the
Admin portlet but it looks like it isn't really a feature of J2?
From what you wrote I guess that this means that every psml has to be copied
for every existing group. Most pages are available for all groups just the
layout needs to be different.
I need a better understanding of the structure of these files so I can't
check it right away (e.g. what the h*** is a profiling rule? ;-))
I will get back once it worked or didn't work.
However this only looks like a workaround as a portal should be able to
assign different layouts per group dynamically. I should probably ask this
question once I have more insight into J2, but wouldn't it be possible to
transform the psml files using xsl assigning layouts and other group specific
attributes on the fly?

You can try this:
1. Remove all layout and portlet decorator defaults from the *.psml pages.
2. Add a group profiling rule for all users, (e.g. 'group-fallback' or
similar).
3. Create group specific root folders, (e.g.
/WEB-INF/pages/_group/group[0-3]).
4. Configure each group root folder with a folder.metadata, probably
copied from an
existing /WEB-INF/pages/folder.metadata file; if
/WEB-INF/pages/folder.metadata
does not already exist, create one of these as well.
5. Define default layout and portlet decorators in the 4 group root
folder.metadata files
you just created. Similarly, define a default set in the root
folder.metadata that will be
used for non-authenticated users.
Give it a shot! Let me know ASAP if you have any problems... this should
work as described here.
