[kde-guidelines] Grouping HIG

[Jens]

I agree fully with the removal of group boxes (as it's just sloppy text 
layout) 

I would like to add the need for mockups and examples in the HIG? If we can 
agree on a layout form we could post hacky layout examples to assist in 
defining relations from not just a technical standpoint but a usability stand 
point?
