Wow, the 'rules with grouped targets' feature is something I've felt was missing from Make for decades -- much appreciation for the work done to specify and implement something to fill that gap!

My "make-booster" GNU make package here: https://github.com/david-a-wheeler/make-booster implements a mechanism to do grouped targets that works on all versions of GNU make. But it's much nicer to have the facility built-in.
Grouped targets is this version's killer feature
I agree. I think "grouped targets" is this version of GNU make's killer feature.
