Maybe we could have two buttons to add a new group? one with the plus at the top as proposed here and one at the bottom?

I put the devcall label, because the last devcall + discussion in last closed pr was opting for different solution to this issue. See #8462 (comment)

@DavidOWade thank you for your interest in JabRef programming. I'm very sorry you put effort in this issue, that should have normally already been marked als closed, but wasn't, since we overlooked it in koppors repo. Even though your changes look codewise good, it was not the solution the devcall in March choose. Please feel free to choose another issue to work on. Again our apologies.
