You are right.

You can do this on a "per directory" base: For each directory you can
select the group of new files and directories:
In Unix do a "chmod g+s directory" and in smb.conf set "inherit
permissions = yes". That's all. Additionally there a a couple of
"force group" and similar parameters in smb.conf.
