Right.

I both like the current way, where the group is at top-level, and the other
way where I'd have something like nested groups.

To be clear on what I mean, this is hopefully a better explanation:

Given
A, B = monitors
[A], [B] = the frame on an empty head/monitor, i.e. with no splitted
frames, on monitors A and B.
{[A] [B]} = group containing said frames
{X}+ = group that's stuck to a head

Then {[A] [B]} is what we have now, and { {[A]}+ {[B]} } is what I'd like
to have. Then a command to unstick a group to a head, which causes a merge
of {[A]} + {[B]} into {[A] [B]}.
