Sorry if hijacking this but I wanted something I think is the same for a long time.  
If this is not what you have in mind @Hubertus please point out, I will then create another thread...

I am running Node-Red with Home-Assistant and have multiple tabs for different locations in my house and such.  
What I am am thinking about is that you can control the grouping by naming the tabs with a separator char or something.  
See this example:

 ![Node-Red - Tabs](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/0/b/0b9979645e47d81bebb226ba2d86300d5904786f.png)

So what if the "/" will work as a trigger to group the three tabs under "House" with a drop down menu:  
 ![Node-Red - Tab with drop down](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/7/3/73ca17a5bd1630efd7432a09fd98e9c84820c161.png)

This would not need anything special, just naming tabs will trigger grouping...
