Can package groups be excluded from kickstart configurations?

Issue

Is it possible to exclude package groups from kickstart configuration files?

For example, a user wishes to create a compact kickstart configuration file by specifying the following in the packages section of their kickstart file:

%packages
@ Everything
-@ Cluster Storage

anaconda, however,  says that it can only exclude individual packages.
