You could copy-paste style, not the fastest way but faster.

 when I want to Identify a feature within that group, I have to click
 through each map in that group in order to find which map in that group
 holds the feature I want to identify.
You can choose the up to bottom stop the first mode in identify.

 There are probably quite a few other actions that would be easier to
 work at a group level rather than a map level,

 Am I attacking this issue the wrong way, or is there a possibility that
 some of these actions can be processed by QGIS at a map-group level?
 
 Regards to all,

You can also (with 2.6) right click with the identify tool to get a popup
menu with features from all intersecting layers.

If your data have a common theme i suppose they are all belonging to the 
same dataset so

maybe merging the data will solve the problem...
