I recommend NOT setting relayerGroupedControls to true. Instead,
select your parent group and then click "Edit group" in the toolbar.
Everything but the group will disappear. Then you can select your
sub-group and use the normal "Send to back", "Send to front" etc menu
items without the sub-group being able to come out of the parent
group.
