There is no provision in TMG to add a Source Group. I suspect that more
Source Groups COULD be added but I do not know for sure. A lot may depend
on the current design as well as other factors. As with other items
requested, I feel sure that they are all on the "Wish List" and will be
addressed in the order that Wholly Genes sets as priority. Some items will
be easy to implement, will benefit almost all users and thus may be
implemented quickly. Others may benefit only a few users and/or be harder
to add to TMG and thus would be implemented later (6 months, a year, two
years, five years, ten years, or whatever). The remainder fall somewhere in
between these extremes.
