Description

In a large cellar cluster, its a pain to assign nodes to groups, because you have to execute a cluster:group-set command on each node.
It would be really useful if there was a command that would allow the user to move nodes from one group to an other in batches (and without having to specify all node ids).

What I have in mind is a command say group-pick that will accept the source group name, the destination group name and the number of node to move.
This command will select (the give number of) eligible nodes from the source group and move them to the destination group.Eligible should be the nodes that are only part of the source group and no other. In the oposite case the result would be unpredictable and most possibly unwanted (if this is not clear I could provide more details).
