It is trying to mimic the the behavior of normal activities -- if you start an activity, this will start on top (or here replace) the current one, unless its launch mode is singleTop. It seems there is a bug where it is ignoring the single top flag. This should be fixed, but note that activity groups and child activities are a little odd in that the code driving them is completely different than top-level activities, so there can be many subtle differences in behavior between the two.
