Actually I found out recently that setting the lockLoc isn't the 
whole story. It is possible to get strange things to happen to groups 
even if the lockLoc is set, apparently if any part of the group has 
had its shape altered by script since it was initially grouped. One 
way to do this is to edit an unrelated group on the same card. This 
is IMO a bug, but one too obscure to add to Bugzilla, at least in the 
medium term.
