Button Controller oddities

In Button Controller, when setting up a held event for dimmers, it seems odd that when assigning bulbs to
a "Set these dimmers" action, you can select a group (created in the Groups and Scenes app). But, when trying to assign in a "Start raising these dimmers" action, you can't choose a group.

This only applies to drivers that support the changeLevel command. Just a guess, but I assume that since a group can contain drivers that do not support this command, it was not included in the group driver. This is a question for @mike.maxwell.

Which makes sense now that I think about it.

yeah, switches being the main offender obviously...

So, then how does the app deal with dimmers in the "Set these dimmers" action? Just ignores anything that doesn't have the changeLevel capability?

all of our built in dimmers already include these capabilities, so in our apps, switches don't show up in the dimmers list...
It's also a separate independent capability.
