Is there an easier way to send a PM to a group?

Perhaps a PM button could be exposed on the [group page](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/discourse/members) if the user visiting the page as permissions to ‘allow group to be used as an alias’?

Additionally or alternatively, could [something like this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-open-composer-with-prefilled-content/13801) be done to open the PM window and fill in the initial recipient list for a PM?
