BFA beta, how to create a new LFR group?

Hello.

I've notice that the old method C_LFGLis.CreateListing doesn't receive anymore the title and description that you need in order to create a group, now the new parameters are:

Code:
C_LFGList.CreateListing(lfgID, itemLevel, honorLevel, autoAccept, privateGroup, questID)
Checking how it works in their LFR addon, the frame "Name" is defined as:

Code:
<EditBox parentKey="Name" secureReferenceKey="LFGListCreationName" securityDisableSetText="true" securityDisablePaste="true" inherits="LFGListEditBoxTemplate" letters="31">
I understand that now that "EditBox" is protected and we cannot set a text, so... is still possible to create a new group using their API? Is there another method I haven't seen?

Thanks!

Oh, damn it!

I was afraid that was going to be the answer.

Thanks!

Have they given a reason for this?
I mean filtering out "WTS" groups was rather simple.

Does anyone know if the change to C_LFGList.CreateListing also affects C_LFGList.ApplyToGroup?

Nope. That's what he said what I asked about reason:
TheDanW: that's a question better suited for design, i didn't make the decision nor did i work on the code to change it
