SUBMITTED: Warnings (instead of errors) when group does not

Could you make SOPs just output a warning if they are set to operate on a group that does not exist?

The situation arises when I somewhere store a component as a pristine copy, and as this copy has no inputs connected, the groups that these inputs should supply do not exist and all ops downstream the one which operates on the non-existing groups error (which is also cluttering the console with error messages, making it hard to find “real” errors)

Thanks
