hmmm.... i'm sure there is some way to find out .... the engine has to know
which group is being edited...just have to find the engine property
....could be an undocumented one.  Isn't there a stack that lists engine
properties?  haven't seen it in years but I think I recall something like
that.

maybe someone will know offhand.
