Just FYI...

When I was looking at group event support for SH (because the hardware
doesn't have sampling support) I was trying to avoid the user being
required to setup the groups on the command-line, e.g. I wrote it so
that the group event creation was all done "behind the scenes".

For those architectures/platforms that are missing sampling support I
still think that group event creation should be as invisible as
possible.
