Group membership should be easily visible for each VM

When I look at a VM I can see an overview, details, policies, actions. I would like to be able to see what groups the VM is part of in this same view. Having to go into reports to find the groups for a VM is not a good user experience. Thank you.

Can't use REGEX in ACCOUNT as a filter when creating Virtual Machine and Volume groups
