Check if / how it works for you.

Or, if you (or anyone) interested in testing, PM me so I could send you a SWS test version which contains the recent Auto group tweaks (waiting to be put into the next SWS release).

So what would I see if this were not working? It seems like it's working just fine for me so I have to wonder if I either got lucky or if I am missing something?

Thanks for everyone's help by the way.
