I agree with Rui. My understanding is that groups in ELF were designed specifically to support C++ templates and inline functions which is why COMDAT groups are the only allowed kind.
Interestingly, I have been having a somewhat related discussion on this review: https://reviews.llvm.org/D53234.
Could the annobin tool use SHF_LINK_ORDER instead?
