Yes please!

I often use them, especially "Development Tools" and "Development
Libraries" (the version of debian's build-essential metapackage).

The only thing that sucks is I don't see an easy way to query yum to
see if a group is installed, without doing a groupinfo and checking
the results against rpmdb individually.
