Perhaps other people will tune in, so I just want to say that I much prefer ccmake over cmake-gui personally. Despite all its quirks which I would love to see fixed it allows for much faster editing without forcing me to tediously point and click with the mouse. But then, I'm also a Vim user... Although the grouping would be a nice feature to have in ccmake, it doesn't bother me since I use the search feature to achieve much the same. Instead of the grouping, I perhaps would even prefer a filter feature. Searching and filtering should IMHO support regexes (or globbing).
