Well, afaict WMS 1.3 is doing "the right thing", and 1.1.1 getcaps is simply assuming layer groups are not queryable, though if you actually issue a GetFeatureInfo against a layer group it does work.
WMS 1.3 getcaps is setting queryable to 1 only if all the layers in the layer group are queryable, otherwise it sets it to zero. Checking against queryable to determine if a layer is made up of a LayerGroup seems not like a steady way of doing so, and I don't think there's any in the getcaps doc that guarantees you it won't break some time. For the sake of another hack, may be you can try using a name prefix for layer groups or so. At least that way it'd be totally under your control?
