Feature Request: Groups in the Alerts section

I have sheets that are used tracking that have multiple levels of 'subscriptions'. I like the power of user groups, and may want one group to have a subscription to the alerts, but not another group. Unfortunately, the groups function does not work in the notifications/alerts section. It only shows a complete list of ALL of the users the sheet is shared with.

I would like it if these groups could be listed in that section so that I don't have to remember the names of who is in what group when I set the alerts. I just put the group in or out of the subscription and I'm done.

Thank you,

Brad

Good idea Brad.

IF this feature was implemented, it might also fix an existing problem with how groups are handled in SS. Right now, if I share a sheet with a group, and then set the alerts, everything is fine. But, if I add another person to a group, they are not added to the alerts - I must go into each sheet manually and add the new group members to the alerts.

Thanks for the suggestion! I will add it to our enhancement request list!
