I haven't actually used the new GAR definitions since they arrived but
I don't think there's a problem with the other ones, it's just the
usergroup class that's a pain to explain. I've had lots of questions
about it and tried to improve the documentation several times but now
I don't think I can until I try the changes myself.

I guess you still need the prototype filter in GAR after all just for this case.

Maybe Dago and Sebastian can help simplifying this?
