What's the purpose of assigning a face group to a bone?
Cos we can still put a weight map without it, and we can add a weight to face groups that's not assigned to the bone.

Face groups allow you to hide polygon selections from the scene view, e.g. if you hide a bone on G8 by clicking the eye next to that bone, the polygons disappear. Face groups might have other uses, but that's the one I know about.
It also allows you to select a bone in the viewport by clicking on it :)
