Weirdly, I have just finished a book about the history of mathematical symmetry. It infact has predictions by people like Feynamen saying that he wouldn't be surprised if some of the recent discoveries led to unified theories. It doesn't look to me much like this finalises anything, just that it could be a first step. I'm deeply unqualified though.

I was under the impression that the more complicated lie groups consisted of millions, billions, trillions of dimensions, or are they just the exceptions? All the simple symetry groups are already known very well anyway, it's only the higher dimension ones that aren't?

That sounds like a good sign to me..
