In a large family, aggregation may happen in distinct parts of a family. For the kinship sum test, the result method should mark kins with a common identifier. This information will facilitate analysis of large families when looking at pedigrees. At the moment, this step needs to be done manually when analyzing the result list line by line.
It appears that the kinship sum test is currently the only test where this feature can be implemented. The Binomial and Genealogical Index of Familiality tests do not report individuals and the Group tests already cluster by kins and the respective plotPed method shows all affected kins within that cluster.
