Nice tip! I've added it to the Yum tips and tricks section on the wiki
as there wasn't anything there on working with yum groups:
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/YumAndRPM#head-b3159dc0594ab59a5ae0c27d86c3815085064419
Note 'yum group list' only works on el7 whereas 'yum grouplist' works
across el5/6/7 so I've gone with that syntax on the wiki.
