It's pretty much impossible to autodetect missing comps entries unless
every package is systematically put in comps. No autochecking means low
QA.

Also if a group is too big it should be broken up in lighter
finer-grained ones IMHO. Choosing the right group is much less work than
writing the package description, and often more useful for users.
