Ok, thanks for the info! So, it looks like Parenting is like a special type of group, where one object acts as a container for others, and you are still able to manipulate the objects within to some degree. Unlike regular groups where all you can do is move the group around (eg: you can't resize groups afaict). Might you consider adding the info you provided to the docs sometime? It may reduce the number of noob questions on the mailing list a bit.
