Hi Joanie,

I'm leaning towards your intuition, with one possible exception. The 
groups created separators are likely not useful from a setsize/posinset 
point of view.

The exception involves menu items that are radio buttons, i.e have 
role=" menuitemradio" [1].  Here the grouping is more important since 
selecting one of the menu items causes that one to be checked, while the 
other radio buttons in the group are all unchecked.
