As you probably know, it is difficult to have a good review
(or a simple review at all).
The most difficult part in such a change is not writing the code,
it is explaining your idea and getting people to agree.
Please show you have thought about the API, seen an issue or a lack,
and propose an idea with a clear target.
In short, we are missing a "why" and "how".

You must also explain what is a group, better than a list of #define.
