Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It should be possible to group datasets in the xcube server configuration.

See https://github.com/xcube-dev/xcube-viewer/issues/385.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add new attribute Group to dataset configuration, which provides a group name that can be used for grouping in the by UIs (xcube-viewer).

Note, a new attribute Tags (list of tags) could be used by UIs to filter many datasets, so that only a subset of datasets is shown at a time.
