$One-million question! Strangely, my reply is: A should, and B shouldn't.

Maybe, it is to be discussed with experts (I am not), but in my general and
formal view, as you Spacer click on an element, and if the element is a part of
a group, what should move is the respective group as a whole (treated as a
single element), and all the elements to the right of the group. In our case, A
& C are to move as a group, and B shouldn't because B is not right to the
group! In my understanding, the group, if it is a group, should be treated as
one element consistently.

Following the above: (1) I suppose the Spacer algorithm could reliably work
like it did in case of clicking the leftmost element of a group (no crashes in
that case were detected), the only correction expected is that the first moving
element should be the leftmost element of the clicked group. And, by the way,
the group should not treated as temporary like other moving elements to the
right of it. ))

(2) Maybe, the whole practice of grouping non-adjacent clips in one track
should be considered weird. ))
