Yes :)

Sascha also says this makes sense for him so I guess I'm getting a bit
soft on the issue.

Does that mean "pins" affect the muxing or that "pins" is about some per-pin
config shoveled into the same node?
The former is not OK, the latter is.

So that looks just very nice.

And here I can't see the use of "groups" in this node since it
doesn't match a function. It's a bit ambiguous what "groups"
mean when you run into it like this.
