Right. Due to this particular setup, inserting (even more) scripts into 
front or back, or placing a group on every card whether it needs it or 
not, isn't practical. The system is already too large and the messaging 
too complex to tinker with at this late stage (going live in a week.)

In this case it isn't a big deal to use separate copies of the group on 
each card that needs it because there are only a few. I was just curious 
if there was a quick, self-contained trick that would allow sharing the 
group. It's too late now to change the messaging that is already in place.

There will be a demo of this project soon, for anyone who is curious 
about what I've been talking about for the last 20 months.
