How do you specify a group when initially displaying an ABPeoplePickerNavigationController (so it doesn't automatically display "All Contacts")?

Yeah, I do. I had to make it work.

Set your class as the delegate of the people picker (pp.delegate = self;)

Then implement:

    if([navigationController.viewControllers count] > 1) {
        navigationController.delegate = nil;
        [navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:NO];

It seems to work best with animation off, but still works with it on but sort of goofy. Only tested on simulator.
