Public bug reported:

The group commentary isn't really a group commentary.  It's a personal 
commentary
installed in a group-wide location.

1. There is no x bit set on /usr/share/sword/modules/comments/rawfiles/group/ so
   the directory isn't even readable, even if you're in the 'sword' group.

2. Even if you manually add the +x, whatever you add to the module is 600 
user:user,
   so nobody can modify it or even read it.

The whole concept of a group commentary is a nice one, but clearly it is badly 
flawed
at the design level.  This commentary should be removed from the archive unless 
it
can be fixed soon.  If the user uses a frontend's module install to install the
"group" commentary in their home directory, then it will work properly (i.e. as
a personal commentary).
