I assume this means Office 365 Groups and all associated services can be a part of new eDiscovery process. Can you confirm? In another words, I can target a O365G and not worry about where content resides, yes ?

Preservation and Deletion feature in the roadmap sounds to me as a part of Data Governance -> Retention feature more so than eDiscovery. However, I can see how this method can be leveraged as a part of 'holds' in an eDiscovery case. What I'd like to understand is that typical 'searches' of content in the Security & Compliance center as a part of eDiscovery case, to be "borderless" and be able to search across content, let it be a conversation, a file or a Plan for an Office 365 Group. That's what I'd like to get better clarity.
