Right- I tried doing this but it looked odd. I found a "middle ground"
which looks quite OK IMHO - let me know what you think.
(Though, I don't think we should have "total playtime of XX minutes"
here, because groups are just groups of music, not ordered, and
therefore having a total playtime wouldnt really make sense, either .. )

Right - changed.

I actually replaced the delete button with a "New group" button, which I
think is much more used. "Delete" is now only in the menus.
