With the new changes it would be that you have a group per head and
frames within the group.
I understand that part.
I would think that the group bindings that exist would still work the
same regardless of which
head you're on.
That depends. It is an interesting question whether groups _should_
be able to migrate between heads; if yes, we will have unified group
numbers for all groups for all heads (that may be a problem for
people liking to have lots and lots of groups); if no, there is
a questiona whether we want bindings to switch to group #n on current
head or whether we want a binding to switch to group #n globally
on the head where it belongs. Both cases have advantages and drawbacks.
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.
