The one thing I can't understand is what bad thing the Group: tag does to a package, why stop at removing Group:
The group tag per se isn't bad, the problem is that, even if some people disagree, the current concept does not really work because it's outdated and needs a heavy rework.
the Release: tag does nothing in openSUSE packages and is set automatically by obs.
This is not correct, while the Group Tag isn't used for installation or update of RPMs, but has pure informative character, release tags make sure that the right package version get's installed and that it get updated. Removing the release tag would break the fundamental parts of package management.
