First, take a look at this:
Notice the two kinds of grouping, brace groups and bracket groups.
Braces are used for the same instrument while brackets are used for families. My proposition is that you can select instruments and group them. You can see a group name (e.g. corni) to label them all and give each staff an individual name (e.g. I+III). Bracket groups will automatically have barlines running through the space in between and have extra space above. You can also check display system text. Some of these features have simple work-arounds but others are much more complicated. I see this as a necessary feature for orchestra and band music.

Then again, maybe the group could be controlled via bracket properties.
Redundant if #279870: Proposed Bracket Functionality implemented.
