Not really - with Inkscape 0.48.3.1, as well as with current trunk, 'Only snap node closest to the pointer' usually works reliably (i.e. the node closest to the point where the group was grabbed will snap to the closest available targets).
Using 'Only snap node closest to the pointer' either in stable 0.48.4 combined with 'Snap to cusp nodes' or in 0.48.4+patch, the group in the attached sample file from comment #8 no longer snaps as expected - at all: Inkscape snaps with some (seemingly random) node far away from the pointer, and this doesn't not change if the group is grabbed at a different location.
The trigger seems to be group(s) of paths inside the group being dragged.
