Hi,

Sometimes (quite often), when I'd like to move a node of group (new property of node-red) the browser window is frozen and after I have to close and reopen node-red browser window.

What's the problem? (I use the latest version of node-red - v1.1.3)

There's a known issue (fixed in git, awaiting a release) when you copy and paste a node into a group.

The workaround is to paste and drop the node outside the group, and then drag it back into the group as a separate action.
