No. My pull request is aimed at fixing a bug, not at introducing
a new feature.

Sure, I see no problem with adding a moveGroup to put a group under another.
But I guess such new feature should also be supported by project load/save,
whereas project must be able to store the full hierarchy
(is that already the case ?)

Are you willing to provide a patch to do that ?
Do we have a testing framework for project save/load roundtrip ?
