You have to get a little tricky with how you reorder when groups are  
involved. When relayering a child control you have to build a list of  
all controls that are siblings and then set the layer of each to the  
layer of the parent group + 1 until all of the siblings are in the  
order you want. But using the layer of the parent group + 1 the  
ordering doesn't get messed up.

The handler that does this in the stack I posted is SetLayerWithinGroup.
