  Are you refering to the possibility to have the <g> tag around all 
layers that share the same group name in the map file ? It should be 
possible although groups in mapserver do not affect the order in which 
layers are displayed. I am under the impression that if we do that for 
the svg output, we would need to  affect the rendering order.  I have 
entered a bug on this, so please update the bug with you comments and 
possible solutions. (http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=1774)

  Not sure to understand : are you using mapserver cgi and doing a 
mode=map ? In that case you are able to specficy an individual layer 
using the parameter layers 
(http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=c:/example.map&mode=map&layers=layers1)

  Make sure that the ststus of your layers in the map file are not set 
to DEFAULT. All layers with the DEFAULT status will be rendered all the 
time.
