I am all about full disclosure and let anyone that I group with know that I'm boxing. If I start the group, my primary box is f2, and everyone else in the group is in the same order on both boxes. If someone else starts the group, the group starter is f2 and my window order is not the same (members coming and going and linkdeads add to the problem). I really can't pay attention to both monitors. I use the primary box's group window to know who to heal.

Rearranging the window also needs to reassign the targetting hotkey for my purposes anyway.

When grouping with friends, I often ask them to reform the group with me inviting everyone to make my life easier.
All you'd need to do with the speedpad is to set up the exact same key assignments but just change the group keys. Then put that set up on another bank of keys. The Nostromo allows you to remap the keys on each bank seperately from the other banks, shouldn't be that hard to do, unless you are using all 3 (or is it 4) banks of keys.
