Yes the grouping is mandatory, and this will not change.  To deal  
with situation like you just listed, the grouping is also a lot more  
flexible.  Your buddies are not grouped solely by Alias, but instead  
you set the grouping.  Your case is just difficult because the  
previous versions didn't support this, and the importer had to do its  
best to guess the groupings.  For most people, it will guess correctly.

Now for the situation you mentioned, you can have multiple persons  
with the same display name (just not the same person name).  See  
http://trac.fireim.org/dev/wiki/PersonItem for more details.

The latest SVN doesn't show disclosure triangles if the person has  
only one buddy, and it also shows the buddy alias (if you have the  
prefs set as such).  This was not the case previously because the  
code had bugs which caused it to crash.
