No they are not. The groups should match the plugin groups in calibre. And which of the groups the plugin goes into is defined by the base class the plugin uses. In the index "GUI Plugin" is used instead of "User Interface Action Plugins". These plugins are based on "InterfaceActionBase". The big difference about these plugins to all the others is that the user starts them directly (toolbar button or menu somewhere) rather than as part of some other calibre action (Metadata source plugins are used as part a metadata download, Output plugins as part of a conversion).

If you install this plugin, it will appear in the "User Interface Action Plugins" group in calibre, so in the index it is a "GUI Plugin".
