Problem description

Having multiple TD Pages is not something uncommon, and putting them into an Object Group helps with organizing them.
It is also not uncomment that one Group of pages does not really have anything to do with the other and should for example not be exported together or pages counted separately in the total sheet number for the autofill (love it).
That is why, a way of creating a Group of pages (Booklet?) where pages are counted separately or one can export all pages in it at once are available. This would also give the ability to add feature like creating a table of contents or other Page group related stuff.

Ideally, one could also link a page of one Group of pages in to another (even from a Part to an Assembly), and it still displays the correct page number and so.

This is definitely a need. Assemblies often have two drawings: an assembly drawing with exploded views, and a customer drawing with external dimensions and interfaces. They are completely different so they shouldn’t share page numbers.

This problem wouldn’t exist if files had only one root (part, assembly, drawing). See discussion #11742.
