Writing my Compiler extensions wasn't this hard.

I've been tasked with the following:
1.)Create a new group
2.)Add permissions to the new group on a registry key
I couldn't find a way to create a new group via wix so ended up using a custom
action which calls net.exe.

All,
I'm using WiX v3.0.3526.0.
Code as follows:
The problem is that the permissions are only applied to the 'Test' key.
