Grouping multiple job streams during submit

Hi

I've some across the requirement to submit a set of job streams (group) while maintaining the correct external follows dependencies. When doing this manually, this means that it should be done with great caution and in a correct order.
What we need is a logical grouping of job streams (f.e. application) so that we can simply submit the application while adhering to the correct dependencies (like the planner does during the extend).

Implementing a logical grouping would also alleviate the need for nested job streams and will require less development effort.

    This feature would also help the issue of job streams that have jobs that run from job stream A then from job stream B and then more from job stream A. Submitted through the planner, they run correctly, submitted manually job stream A needs to be submitted first. then job stream B, but then the successors to job stream B in job stream A do not have the predecessors attached.
