Ok. So, is the new description of 4.1.27 ok with you?

  4.1.27 Attribute Groups
     [...]  
     Description: An attribute group is a non-divisible, extensible
        grouping of attributes that are meaningful together.  It can be
        reused as the type of attributes in other attribute groups (see
        also Section 4.1.28).  This is similar to `structs' in C or
        `classes' in Java.
