strange nested groups behaviour

[jbv]

Jan,

Nevertheless I think it can be considered as a bug, or at least
as a serious limitation of the engine.

The Rev doc for "owner" says "Reports which object is next
in the object hierarchy", and since xml is now widespread, one
can expect "owner" to behave somehow like "parentNode"...
