I think that mostly the new control scheme is very good (especially after playing "clunky" MTW) discounting all the bugs. The new controls are good when they work and when all the bugs are gone it will be brilliant. I still think the old MTW interface was better though.
Generally the only time I use groups at all is when I'm attacking. I wil set up my battle line, group everyone the walk them to the enemy. Once there I'll ungroup a unit before he fights. Ex. I'm walking there get close, ungroup my missles tell them to attack and everyone else to stop. Once the enemy reacts I'll ungroup my infantry and move them, then when the time is right ungroup my cav to use them. Group does work really well if your using it to keep your battlelines sane durign a long march across the map.
