For 0.3.x we need to keep the current hardcoded groups. When we want to
add API to support other types of groups, we'll do it in 0.4.x

Please don't commit anything in 0.3.x (master) if you want to play with
any new features and apis, please create a branch in packagekit.org git
and work there.

I know we are all keen to find a better solution, but for now I think
it's best we work in a branch and then we can cheery pick later when we
branch for 0.4.x.

Richard.
