In order to keep things consistent, it would be nice to have all the groups
I want, and then switch to group #n on current-head.  This would work
the same as frames do currently  If I've got 5 frames and am showing
3,  when I do <prefix>-n it will switch between the current frame and the two
non-displayed frames.  That sort of behaviour makes sense for groups as
well since it is consistent.

So if I have 2 heads and 10 groups, I should be able to cycle through
9 groups per head by doing <prefix>-g n.
