Publishing mesh group without the underlying geometry

Hi,
I have an edge object on which I create an element group using
mesh_on_edge = mesh.GroupOnGeom(edge, typ=SMESH.EDGE)
mesh_on_edge.SetName('Interface')
The problem is that not only the mesh group, called 'Interface', appears in the study, but also the edge (with the automatically created name 'Edge_1') on which it has been created. According to the documentation, I can switch off the automatic publishing with
smesh.SetEnablePublish(False)
but then the mesh group is not published either. Currently, my strategy is to remove the automatically published edges from the study using
from salome.kernel.studyedit import getStudyEditor
studyEditor = getStudyEditor()
n_edge = ... # I know how many edge groups I created
for i in range(1, n_edge+1):
edge_to_unpublish = salome.myStudy.FindObject('Edge_'+str(i))
studyEditor.removeItem(edge_to_unpublish)
It took me a long time to find the required functions for it. I find this strategy ugly and brittle (what if 'Edge_2' already exists in the study; which one will be deleted?). Is there a way to
1) either publish a mesh group manually (the equivalent of "geompy.addToStudyInFather", but for mesh not for geometry)
2) or publish a mesh group automatically, but without publishing the underlying geometry?
Thanks,
Zoltan
