This is a scene graph issue (imagine sharing materials and objects between groups). Manta is not a scene graph. I know Steve has done some work on Scene graphs.

Who is supposed to own the objects in a Group (i.e., who is responsible for deleting them)? If it's up to the programmer, and I want the Group to own its objects, would it be terrible to add a destroy() method to the Group that would run through its vector of Object *s and delete them?
