groupname value

[J E H A N Z A I B]

I dont just want to fill it i wanted the groupname saved. Its really handy
because we keep on changing the groupname with time so its better we save
it somewhere. Sure we can delete it from radacct table since this is not
related to acct. I can add it in the other table like radpostauth might be?

What do you recommend?
