Archlinux.org has a handy link for packages, and there is a nice package search feature at https://www.archlinux.org/packages/. But unless I'm missing something there's no way to easily search for package groups on the site (like can be done for packages), and indeed there's no obvious link or way to navigate to the package group at https://www.archlinux.org/groups/.

Would it be possible to at least add a link in a prominent place on the website, that points to https://www.archlinux.org/groups/? Also I understand this would be more work but a search that includes package groups would also be nice (maybe as a menu drop-down option at https://www.archlinux.org/packages/)
This task depends upon

The package groups are linked from the home page. What is the exact reason groups should be searchable, most users are interested in packages not groups.
