Wonderful! This is an enormous reduction in code for me.
I cut out one entire function and some arrays!

I suppose to be super friendly to admins I should give keys
to all of the default patterns, so they can easier be cancelled from
a local config file (like $CommentNameFmt['current'] = '';)
for
 SDVA($CommentNameFmt, array(
   'current' => '{$Group}.*',
 etc.

Thanks Patrick for all your help, I learned a great deal!
