Yes, with the default dynamic behavior of groups this is what most folks
will experience. But some time ago I needed more canvas-like behaviors,
and Scott Raney accommodated me by adding the boundingRect property for
groups.
Similar to SuperCard's backSize property, the boundingRect lets you
define a rect for the scrollable area of a group regardless of its contents.
