rpm groups and fedora: a modest proposal

Well, for the packages in fedora core, the 'Group:' field will need to
remain, since we use it for things like sorting debuginfo packages into
separate dirs and such. It is also useful for quick 'what does this
package do' ponderings when looking at rpm -qip output.
I'm sure package maintainers would welcome patches to update errant Group:
fields that don't match the proper format.
Cheers,
