Just in light of recent posts about how to move groups of nodes.

Given you can `SHIFT` click on a node and all attached nodes are also selected allowing moving of a _group_ of nodes easy, I see a slight problem:

Now and then you use the `comment` node to write comments.  
They aren't selected when you do what I just said.

Allowing them to have an _input_ (best option of the two I think) when you SHIFT CLICK on a group of nodes, the `comment` nodes are taken along also.

## Yes, ok:

You could `GROUP` the nodes.

That has a problem if you are dynamically editing that _group_ of nodes, adding new nodes isn't as easy.  
You have to deselect the group and then regroup them.

Just a thought.

Or you can just drag a bounding box around the nodes you want.
