Ah, I see.  But it seems like `define-minor-mode' just discards :group
now.  Here's a test case:

(define-minor-mode foo-mode "doc" :group 'mouse)

Since this isn't a global minor mode, we end up in this branch:

         ((not globalp)
          `(progn
             :autoload-end
             (defvar-local ,mode ,init-value
               ,(concat (format "Non-nil if %s is enabled.\n" pretty-name)
                        (internal--format-docstring-line
                         "Use the command `%s' to change this variable." mode)))))

and :group (which ends up in `extra-keywords') isn't used.  Should this
instead use `defcustom' with :local t?  I.e., basically merge with the
global case in that cond?
