A group is the content of an IMovable — movable.getContent<IGroup>() for a movable
whose content type is 'group'. Its members are ordinary movables, each with its own content
(a shape, a picture, a chart, another group), held by the group's movable in z-order
(IMovable.getMovables). A member's IMovable.getParent is the group's movable.
A member is read and edited where it is drawn, like any movable; the group keeps its
placement in the child space the file states (IGroup.JSON.childBounds) and maps it
through its own frame. Resizing the group changes its frame only: the members keep what they
store, and are drawn at the new scale, as Excel's Size pane shows it.
A group: a movable that holds movables.
