Slackware has this concept.

Yes, it might be in the wiki, but I remember correctly it's not implemented.

I am a former user of Slackware, through 13.0, and can say there was no wheel group.

# cat /etc/slackware-version
Slackware 14.1

# grep wheel /etc/group
wheel:x:10:root

It's this discussion slightly irrelevant? If you don't have a wheel group, it only takes a moment to create one if you want it. There is nothing special about groups under Unix/Linux.
