Yes, and branch groups simply become a "pre-tested" set of divisions (I would 
imagine it simply defines the various combinations CI would test in the 
future, though that concept is still up to Ben).

In the kdesrc-build world you'd still be able to pick divisions (and tracks), 
individual modules, etc.

There's two feasible ways to go with the "branch-group" option though: It is 
used to pick the right branch or track if not specified, or it is used as CI 
would use it, to pull in an entire set of divisions in one fell swoop. I'm 
open to other ideas, but that's a topic for a separate thread in any event.
