Say me please.
That advise me to do in this case (the video by 15 seconds):

Objects is very much ...

All objects manually assign a vertex group long and tedious. And, you can skip something by accident. Please, add this feature.

“Dynamic Paint Output” - is a parameter modifier “Dynamic Paint”.
So, when I copy the modifier on all objects, all without exception, the settings must also be copied.

Event Timeline

Re-submitting the same bug report when it has been rejected is not a good practice at all!

Again, this is not a bug! A modifier is *not supposed to add a vertex group*, it’s not its purpose. If you have a bunch of objects and need to add a vgroup to each, just use a small py script, like e.g. (in py console):

>>> for ob in C.selected_objects:
>>> if ob.type == 'MESH':
>>> ob.vertex_groups.new("VGroupName")
