Inspired by and in addition to @aeric's wish on the subject of the modules window.....

When adding an existing shared module to a project, it would be nice if any existing groups structure that the module has was retained, automatically creating new groups in the project if necessary.

For example:
module .bas files contain the group in which the module is contained:
B4J=true
Group=Analysis\Reports
ModulesStructureVersion=1
Type=Class
but if I add this exiting module to a new project it will be put in the Default group. I'd like it to go direct into the Analysis\Reports group, automatically creating those groups in the new project if necessary.

This would remove the need to create the groups manually and drag the shared module to it, which as @aeric said can be difficult in a large project
 
If you right-click a group and choose "Add Existing Modules" then select the modules from other project path, the modules will be added inside that group.

:D
I'd never noticed that! Thanks @aeric!
Consider this wish closed (although I guess we still need to create the group manually first, so I'll leave it here).
