It is dubious to carry UNUESD over to an external declaration in a
public header file, unless it is a "static inline" definition that
comes with the implementation.

Other than that, move looks correct and it is generally a good idea.

When moving functions and types that have been private to the
implementation of a subsystem to public namespace, we need to be
careful to consider if the names of these things are specific
enough.  With "remote_group" in them, they are all good as-is in
this case, and can go public without giving them "better" names.

Thanks.
