Honestly it is not that big of a deal. On a glider while we have 6 
servos (most competitive planes) they are used for flap (2), ailerons 
(2) rudder and elevator. So a group of 4 is more than adequate since 
even in a worse case the wing servos you want to have as little 
difference as possible, but I cannot ever recall any glider guy I know, 
including most of the Airtronics sponsored glider pilots, ever even talk 
about that. Trust me, I fly with these guys all the time and if they 
could rub my nose in something, they would (Airtronics guys are just 
so.... well, you know!!) :~}

Now the IMAC/giant scale/3D guys it is a HUGE deal. With 2 to 3 servos 
per surface and so on, the more channels grouped the better. And in that 
world channel grouping is a very hot topic of conversation.
