I know why it never occurred to me. I learned about button groups from
the first edition Core Java book in 1996. It was not presented from a
"WYSIWYG" designer point of view. I think that if my first introduction
to button groups was in the designer, I would have come up with that
idea a whole lot sooner.
Interesting how context changes things.
