Groups do not receive mouseEnter messages?

[dunbarxx]

I suppose as long as one knows how it works, it can be dealt with.

But there is an issue here, in that a group is not really a control, despite
what the dictionary says. A group has a rect, and one can tell if the
mouseLoc, say, is within that rect (and not necessarily within the rect of a
child control), but one cannot rely on any "ordinary" LC thinking to hold at
all.

I understand that a group is merely a group of controls. If it was a
ghostLike object that only did that, then well and good.

But since it interacts with those controls intrinsically (as, for example,
the way radio buttons behave "natively") and owns most "ordinary" control
properties, well then, dammit, if one makes it opaque and green, it ought to
respond to mouse events.
