Baolu and I discussed about this assumption before. The assumption is
not based on singleton groups. We do consider multiple mdevs in one
group. But our feeling at the moment is that all mdevs (or other AUX
derivatives) in the same group should come from the same parent 
device, thus comes with above design. Does it sound a reasonable
assumption to you?

Thanks
