Removing the last reference on a page, with <references/> present, causes the waring: There are no references with the group "" on this page. That should be There are no references on this page.

No. You can have dozens of <ref group="foo">s and no <ref>s and get that message. Perhaps a special-case of "There are no references without a group on this page." for the null-group instance?
In the use-case for this bug, there are no references of any group, so why mention groups at all. IMO the UI shouldnt talk about groups unless it is necessary. Most pages dont used grouped references.
I agree with John: Most pages dont used grouped references. It would be much more intuitive to say that there are no references at all. Several users in the Hebrew Wikipedia complained about it, and I imagine that it's the same in all languages.
