The new swim lanes on the storyboard are nice, but it would greatly enhance the usability of the feature, if the swim lanes could be configured to be based on Feature Group or Epic. (These are not necessarily options reflective of Kanban's class of service notion, but would greatly help transparency for certain teams, e.g. teams working on various platforms (FGs) in parallel).

I would also like to group by Team.
I agree - the feature is very nice but we can't use it because there is nothing useful to us that it can be configured for.
As of the Fall 2015 release, storyboards can be grouped by the parent portfolio item. Selecting Portfolio Item as a "group by" choice in the board configuration dialog creates a swim lane for each direct parent portfolio item for all the backlog items on the board.
In addition to grouping by the immediate parent item, storyboards can be configured to group backlog items by any specific portfolio level, for example, Feature or Initiative. This allows for added flexibility when configuring boards.
