Where on github?  If it's an official repo we should fix it.

I've raised an upstream bug[1] so we can improve the error message, and
possibly the user-guide documentation[2] and official heat example
templates[3]

Parameter groups are documented in the HOT spec[4], but it seems like we
can improve things elsewhere.
