I would like to make an request:

**It would be handy to be able to copy a step [or steps] of an action to another action group**

When I add a new action to a group I first create a new separate group, for testing purposes. And the last time I did it, my test had around 10 entries [actions]. So after the testing faze, I had to once more create those actions in my old existing action group [because I want to do certain things with a single click / group and not two clicks / groups]. And aside from wasting time in situations like this, there is a possibility of an error- the second time I write [create] it I can simply miss some steps or for example forget to check the "only as a whole word" box [and thus messing up the whole multi-step process without even noticing it]

Right now I use Photoshop to do this right: a take a screen shoot of tested group and visually compare it withe the updated old one

**Alternatively:** there could be an option to merge [add up] two groups into one
