 | group | ? | Appears to correspond with the name of the file, doesn't that make it redundant? |
-| `group_name` | Name of group this setting belongs to.  These are defined as constants in the class `CRM_Core_BAO_Setting` |  Uses a string & not a constant as it might be defined outside of core too (& the constants are particularly ugly for these). This has been deprecated as of 4.7 but is used for historical support reasons. Since 4.7 the two main options are `domain` or `contact`. The older name such as `CiviCRM Preferences` are treated as an alias for `domain` or `contact`|
