Anaconda/install question: Core packages but only for virtual machines

In comps.xml there's a "Core" group which I think is a minimal set of
packages that always get installed by Anaconda (maybe I'm wrong about
that).

Is there a group for packages that always get installed, but only
inside virtual machines? [*]

I want to propose a package which enhances VMs by making various stats
available to the host.  It wouldn't be useful to install this on
baremetal - it would only be useful inside a VM.

Rich.

[*] Note: I'm not talking about the Virtualization group.
