Now this I can help you with today :-)

Unfortunately, you have to restart OmniFocus when you change this, and the strings are a bit tedious to type, but you could write a shell script or two to do the dirty work for you to switch between a "Review" view (with numbered badges) and a "Work" view (with just the colored dots).

Yep. I agree here. Forecast mode is where the trouble is. I would imagine holy terror will arise should OG remove the existing "auto-complete" feature on Action Groups. That leaves modifying the how Action Groups (auto-complete or otherwise) are handled/displayed in Forecast mode as a more viable choice.
I'm assuming you mean the feature where checking the action group completes all the contained actions, not the feature where the action group is automatically checked off when you complete the last contained action. I don't know that I would get very upset about the former going away, given the ability to select a group of actions and mark them completed in a single operation I previously mentioned. If Omni is getting lots of support calls from people who are getting bitten, I could understand putting a safety guard on the sharp blade, so to speak, even if it is a little less convenient for the power user. It certainly wouldn't be the first time, and I'm sure it wouldn't be the last.

Oh! I meant checking a GROUP completed / uncompleted. I missed that note even after you pointed it out directly. My apologies. I'll go bang my head against a brick wall a few times to make amends ... :\
No sweat, I forgot that projects and action groups behave differently in this particular regard!
