Yes, that's what I did in the end :)

However, I don't like this, either. When I rotate a group object now,
the boundbox still stays ortographic, and that looks highly strange 
(though it is correct of course). It would be better if the boundbox
rotated with the group object and still were correct for all children
(group members).

But I'll have to think in silence for finding a solution... Don't
want to bother the list with this :)
