Unfortunately, no. Persons in groups are not linked between each other, nor are they linked with the original contacts from which they come. > 2. Why should not that be done automatically? This is a consequence of how the contact groups are stored - as a contact with many emails :) I think that contact groups are not even standardized in vCard RFC, so it would not be portable across applications (we already introduce one similar incompatible-thingie to support nested sub-groups). Might be an interesting feature though, but I'm unsure how to implement it :) Feel free to open an enhancement request in bugzilla.
