+Performance:

+  - Adde an active-thread variable to the dashboard's misc group, showing the

+  - Reduce time complexity of layer-group translation. When translating a layer

+    before translating them (as per the fix to issue #3484), as this results in
+    quadratic time complexity w.r.t. to the maximal subgroup nesting level.
+    Instead, simply defer the updating of the group's offset until *after*
+    translating the child layers, so that their original area isn't clipped by
+    the parent, while their new area is still properly updated even if the
+    parent's size changes.
