Description

My mod has multiple features that make use of list options. For these features, most of the settings are listed under a single collapsible group corresponding to the feature. However, since groups cannot be nested, and list options must be groups, the lists must be outside of the feature's group, separated from the rest of the settings. This makes my config screen look somewhat messy, as it is not clear which feature the list corresponds to.

I think it would be useful to have the ability to nest groups for better organization.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the builder-based configuration API paths for groups and list options, then confirm the expected nested layout in the config screen; done means groups can contain list options while preserving clear feature organization.
