Bug Description

The group commentary isn't really a group commentary. It's a personal commentary
installed in a group-wide location.

1. There is no x bit set on /usr/share/sword/modules/comments/rawfiles/group/ so
   the directory isn't even readable, even if you're in the 'sword' group.

2. Even if you manually add the +x, whatever you add to the module is 600 user:user,
   so nobody can modify it or even read it.

The whole concept of a group commentary is a nice one, but clearly it is badly flawed
at the design level. This commentary should be removed from the archive unless it
can be fixed soon. If the user uses a frontend's module install to install the
"group" commentary in their home directory, then it will work properly (i.e. as
a personal commentary).
