This is correct.  I'm not certain of a good mechanism to have a
group that is read+write shared among all of the fields in a farm.

In addition to the stuff in my previous post, one could perhaps achieve
this with something like (still in farmconfig.php):

    $group = FmtPageName('$Group', $pagename);
    if ($action == 'edit' && $group == 'Shared') 
      $WikiDir = new PageStore('/path/to/shared.d/$FullName');

This would ensure that any edits for pages in the Shared group
would all appear in the farm-shared directory.
