Thanks for your reply. If possible I'd like the file I export from Gimp to open in Photoshop with all the layer groups intact. No one else has done this or needed to do this? This would be easy if the TIFF export supported layer groups because I could just open the TIFF in PS directly. This seems like the optimal solution for me.
If it is confirmed that there is no way to do that today, I'll fall back to the manual recreation. In that case I totally agree that doing an un-group just before exporting to PSD will allow me to work with the layer groups in Gimp, which I prefer. I see there is a plugin which ungroups layer groups which I could use.
