paul,

Yes, you can label guides. You could even give them composite labels, although you'd have to manage this yourself. This would allow you, for instance, to include a group name and a specific name for each of your guides.

Then, you could have a script to delete a group. It would look for the group name in the label, and then delete all guides that had the same group name.

If you look in the Scripting Guide or the AppleScript Dictionary for InDesign, you'll see that Label is one of the properties of a guide and so you can treat it just like any other property, setting and getting and making decisions based on what's there.
