How do I group Faces in the Editor?
The Button "Add Current Selection" does not work, even when I just select 1 face no group will be created?

    Click "Add Group" Icon (looks like paper with +), then click your newly created groupname and select faces you want and press "Add current selection to group" (big +) button.

    Haha oh, I guess we can! Much easier than doing it the other way people mentioned.

    Ah, so I realized why I didn't think Ctrl+G worked. Grouping doesn't work like it does in other programs. After grouping, you can still select individual pieces of the group. In Adobe Illustrator, you have to actually go into the group (or ungroup) in order to change the positioning of things. It's more restrictive, but on the other hand it's much more convenient if you've already completed the portion that you've grouped, and you only need to duplicate and move it around if you don't need to go click in the groups window to find it. As is, it acts more like a layer than a group.
