- # 13223
The groups feature of the fields component should be implemented by using com_categories. Right now, this is simply duplicating the code of com_categories, including the database structure. Yes, the groups code currently has less features than the categories code, which is another reason to use that instead. Use the categories table with a proper context and you will already be able to nest the groups arbitrarily deep, which will be a requested feature the moment this gets released.
This is part of a code review of the fields feature. See #13222 and other connected issues.

I understand you, but there were to many issues and having com_fields specific code in com_categories is not acceptable. Also com_categories really is overkill for what we need here.
That's why it has been decided by PLT/Maintainers to change it.

Nah, it was categories and had issues. We changed to to field groups.
