Bug Description
It would be very useful to be able to perform boolean operations on
groups. Union, Cut and Combine don't quite make sense, but Difference,
Intersection, Exclusion and Division seem to have a logical workflow. This
would make groups a lot more powerful. The operation would be
relatively straightforward: perform the boolean operation on each child of
the group individually for Difference and Intersection, create a duplicate
group and do mirror opposite operations on both old and new for
Exclusion and Division.
Great work on Inkscape.

This would be a welcome feature for sure!
At the moment, the only way to do this is to duplicate the top paths, and apply the boolean operations for each individual path.
