I did think some time ago that it should not be too hard to write a pacman wrapper handling interactive group install. But I did not know yaourt had that feature, that's interesting. I like 'rebase -i' a lot, never thought of using that for groups. But well, if it's already in yaourt, why bother doing the same thing again in pacman ?
