Under "All Fields" many fields are grouped, and there is a little icon on the right of the bar that allows them to be viewed in a flat list, or in a hierarchy.
 
1. How are they grouped?  The manual claims they can be dragged and dropped, but If I try that it looks like it is going to work, but never does.  www.sqlnotes.net/drupal5/index.php
 
2. Can there be multiple levels of grouping?
 
Thanks

Also, why do the cells for some fields have a gray color while others have a white color?  What causes that and what is that telling the user?

Correct, that bug needs fixing. In fact, the whole properties pane field management need improvements:
  • Create fields on the fly
  • Keyboard shortcuts to move fields around in the field hierarchy
  • Fix drag-drop
I'll include some of that in the coming versions... 
 
BTW, fields with a grey background a system fields

Thanks Pierre.  How about my question # 2 above?
 
BTW, I don't know if you can do anything about it, but this site is slow as molasses the last couple of days.  Sometimes seeing 10 second + load times.

Hi !
 
Yes, there is multiple level grouping, though it is still a little bit buggy. Expect a better implementation in the next version
 
Yeah, the site is really slow, I'll need to contact the web server and complain... one more thing to do...
