No way. It would make the API quite a lot more complicated, because groups can 
get other groups as parents and stuff like contact counts in the list view 
items have to cater for nested groups as well.

Not to mention that only geeks tend to understand trees more than one level 
deep, many people already have troubles with the concept of the file 
system...

Please stay away from that path. (And _definitely_ before KDE 3.2 :)

I've heard some valid arguments actually, I changed my mind. I won't likely 
use it myself, but better leave it in.
