It would remove all template glyphs from the font.
This current version of the script handles template glyphs:

If they are group names (starting with an @) you can edit them in with the groups objects
f = CurrentFont()
f.groups["@MMK_L_f"]

Its possible that this group isn't not in your groups but already hard coded into the features.
(normally MM is adding those kerning groups also as font.groups items)
note:
RoboFont does not automatically convert font.groups to feature groups.
Use this extension for converting and adding groups to the feature file: http://github.com/typemytype/RoboFontExtensions/tree/master/groups2Features
good luck

from mojo.events import addObserver

class RenameGroupsObserver(object):
    
    def __init__(self):
        
        addObserver(self, "checkGroupNames", "fontDidOpen")
    
    def checkGroupNames(self, info):
        print "checking group names for single quotes"
        font = info["font"]
        
        for groupName, items in font.groups.items():
            newItems = []
            for glyphName in items:
                if "'" in glyphName:
                    glyphName = glyphName.replace("'", "")
                newItems.append(glyphName)
    
            if newItems != items:
                ## something changed
                font.groups[groupName] = newItems
        print "done checking group names"

RenameGroupsObserver()

save this script in a file and add it in the preferences as a start up script and you never ever have to worry about single quotes in groups.
see http://doc.robofont.com/documentation/workspace/preferences/extensions/
Your font data will change and importing the UFO back in FL will change the groups behavior, off course
good luck

The groups created in RF are used as "reference groups" in MM, right? Why not directly as 'standard' groups usable for kerning?
