Search for a group by Group ID

We have many groups with similar names so it would be helpful if you could also search for the group by Group ID (a la Constituent search by Name or ID).

 

We sometimes have groups tied to conditional components in email messages and we may want to check/confirm that that group is the appropriate one. However the conditional html only has the Group ID and there is no way to search for the group by ID so we have to sift through groups with similar names hunting for that Group ID. Seems like this would be extremely easy functionality to add and it would be very useful and easy to use.

    Alex, until something formal gets implemented, it is possible to find groups by group ID by doing a 'view' on a group (any group), and then modifying the group_id parameter in the URL to the desired one.  There's no question it is a hack, but it beats rolling through page after page of group names.
