I am curious if anyone has found a way to set those "Group" and "Display name" setting for the taskbar for individual items? I would love to have some entries as a single icon, no matter how many windows are behind them, and some "ungrouped", so I can quickly access any window.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but I asked a similar question a while ago. In this way, everything is an icon and doesn't take much space, and grouped entries are still grouped, although not behind a single icon; but that simply means one click less to get to the grouped entries. Here's an example how active, inactive and grouped icons look:

If that's not good enough for you, check the answer to my question anyway - it'll tell you where taskbar settings are in the registry, maybe you'll find it useful.

Right click on the Windows orb, select properties>taskbar Tab> Taskbar buttons dropdown, set it to "always combine, hide labels" Hit OK.
