Isn't this a bug?  Otherwise, "We have chaos on the Highway 666, total

No - background groups have always worked this way (and behaviors work the way you'd expect, they receive events which the object they are attached to doesn't handle).

All background groups placed on a card appear after the card in the message path.

There are two settings you can apply to a group - 'Shared Group' and 'Background behavior'.

The 'Shared Group' setting means it can be placed on more than one card.

The 'Background Behavior' setting means it behaves like a background - rather than a normal group.

If you turn 'background behavior' off, then your shared group should no longer receive messages after the card does.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
