Group() appears in .csg files generated by OpenSCAD. It is accepted as input
from .scad files and appears to be an alias for union().
Is this true or does it also have some hidden function?

A group is a data structure consisting of a sequence of zero or more items,
where each item is either a shape or a group. There isn't much reason to
use the 'group' keyword directly, so the feature isn't documented.
