Sorry, I see now how current behavior is clearly buggy.

I had actually found a peculiar use for this behavior: Using ctrl-click to verify that the correct group was selected in a busy drawing where several groups have the same bounding boxes (common with some svg figures exported from Matlab). Ctrl-click followed by 'ungroup' actually selects all the members of the parent group, which I could then delete/move/recolor easily.

If you end up implementing this by automatically entering the group on Ctrl-click, then I could still get the same behavior with ctrl-click followed by select-all...
