Hi there,

suppose I've got a backend (you know it's nndb.el :).  Suppose further
I want to extend this to create ephemeral groups.  What do I have to
change in nndb.el to enable it to create ephemeral groups, too?  (I'd
be willing to create yet another backend nneb.el (e=ephemeral) if
that's easier.)

Just in case you're wondering...  NNDB has an option to search its
database.  This works by creating groups which have "=" in their
name.  NNDB then creates a new group on the fly and puts the search
result into it.  This group can be manipulated using the normal
measures.  I just thought it would be easier to be able to create an
ephemeral group rather than to always create a `real' group (using `G
m') and to kill it after use.
