of a vector layer.

2. Merge all vector layers into group with shortcut key or menu option

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is not expected behavior and the behavior changed from a previous version.
As you can see in the tutorial linked below, the woman in the video merges a
vector group and the merged layer remains vector as she can then save the
merged layer as an SVG layer.

Other users have also reported the issue on a krita artists forum in the link
below:

The current workaround is to click each individual layer within the group and
perform merge with layer below. This is tedious and time consuming, and is not
an acceptable long term solution.
