Based on the discussion in this thread: [Is using `type: group` in plugins no longer working? - Support - Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/t/type-group/405487/4)

1. If it was never implemented, can it be implemented in the future, similar to `type: category`?

2. If it was removed, what was the reason?
