Rant: Group Cue

This just happened to me live, in our break cue. 

Selected two groups via direct selects. Noticed I only need the first group. Cleared once, when I should have cleared twice (Which is totally my bad).

In the command line was "Group X + Group". When I hit "Out", this command line auto-terminated to Group X + Group Cue X @ Out, which turned off everything, including house lights and worklights.

"Group Out" terminates in a syntax error, which to me looks like a safeguard to not accidentally turn off everything. I feel like this should also be the default behaviour when selecting multiple groups, where the last group would auto-terminate to a Group Cue X, like in the example above. Especially when there's no visual indication in Tab 1 Live that everything in Cue X is selected, because the selection is not yet finished.

Additionally, since "Group Out" is a syntax error, I feel like "Group (Level Wheel down)" should also be protected. This, as well as every encoder move with "Group" in the command line, is currently not protected by default.

In my opinion, "Group" should throw a syntax error and never auto-terminate into Group Cue X with the only exception being "Group Enter" or "Group Cue".

I would like to know what you think. Is this a reasonable take?

Thanks.
