When there are two dockables in a stack dock station (red, and green for example), each with grouping set to a PlaceholderGrouping with placeholders custom.red and custom.green respectively, if one closes the first dockable (red), and adds a new dockable with the same placeholder as the dockable that was closed, the new dockable will be placed after the green one, instead of going back to where red was.
With three or more dockables this problem does not happen (red, green, blue, close red, and open red again).
I include an example program that demonstrates this:

* This example shows how to:
* 1. use the perspective API to put some "placeholders" into the layout
* 2. use the grouping mechanism to put real dockables at the location of the placeholders
*
* It also demonstrates how dockables that are associated with the same group tend to stick together.
