Where the cluster of radio buttons is surrounded by a dotted box with the title of the radio cluster at the top. This can easily be achieved in a user item for a dialog item. Be sure that the code to draw the title of the radio cluster box is drawn using the system justification values (and appropriate placement of course) for full compatibility with other script systems.
