That only separates the groups for display.

What I had in mind was creating a new question type  like 'radiogroup'.
phpESP would have to:

  1. Manage the creation of separate groups with "name=group1" attributes
    This would be in the Survey Design management interface screen.


  2. Receive and process the groups as 'response_multiples' instead of
     response_single.

Not sure of all the underlying code and I'm short on time right now,
but I might give it a try later.
