yes, it is a NodeCore and also acts as a sort of group (there are few 
cores that have some sort of limitation on the children the nodes they 
are attached to can have - Switch and DistanceLOD come to mind).

you can replace a Group with the Stage or use a MultiCore, both should work.

in the case at hand the location of the files in the source tree gives a 
good hint: Source/System/NodeCores/Groups/Stage/OSGGroupingStage.{h,cpp}

they are not classes, but refer to pages with an overview description of 
a (sub-)system. I think we did not move all of them over from 1.x and of 
course there are new ones that need to be written...
