=== Grouping Checklists ===
Ever got frustrated by being unable to select the right checklist from the Help->Checklist dialog?  Your problems may now be solved - FlightGear now supports grouping of checklists.
Checklists can now optionally be grouped together under a <group> node in the property tree, with each group given a descriptive name. For example:
  <group>
  <name>Emergency</name>
  <checklist>...
  <checklist>...
  </group>
  <group>
  <name>Ground</name>
  <checklist>...
  <checklist>...
  </group>
This is supported within the Checklist dialog, and also by the FG1000.
