just use the jumpbox (drop-down select box with instant navigation to
target page). It works well with a pagelist providing the pagenames of
a group. But refrain to program the pagelist to provide the index
pages of groups only (as a way to select amongst all groups), since
the pagelist will go through all pages of all groups, which may slow
down your wiki. If you need a jumpbox with groupnames, add them
manually, or providea wiki trail page with the links to the groups you
need, and let pagelist display these (as choice in the jumpbox).
