All right, all right - I think I gave some indications that I'm aware
of all that.

The problem with grouping is that the input is just lines of texts,
wrapped in an element, and the only attribute there is a time stamp.
The data results from a test system that itself is currently under
development, so that the groups aren't stable, or they may not be well
formed etc.

But I'll advance to grouping as soon as I can trust my input ;-)
