Have a default group at setup
Added by Benoît PECCATTE almost 10 years ago.

Description
The user installing a rudder agent could be able to decide an initial group.
The user could be give a group name at setup, this group could then be automatically setup from environment variable.
This can be used to have a setup group that contains heavy rules that make a first setup of the machine.
This group would then be decided by the person doing installation and not the one configuring Rudder.

I'm wondering if the underlying need is not: http://www.rudder-project.org/redmine/issues/4670
Because in Rudder, you never actually choose a group, you define characteristic and aspect of your node, and based on that, the groups are chosen.
So, perhaps we need to ask the user to choose "something" at installation (let call that thing a "trait" or "aspect" of the node), and then, some magic and convention happens so that the node is added to the correct corresponding groups.
Yes, that may fulfill the use case.
