Plunkr Case (Bug Reports)
None

Current behavior
Using a table with RowGroup (of any kind: Toggleable, SubHeader or RowSpan) and Selection (single, multiple or checkbox) plugins:
when the user clicks on one row, all the rows of the group are selected (the group must contain at least 2 rows...)

Expected behavior
Only the clicked row should be selected.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions
cf. current behavior.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

I am also having this issue.
I believe this conflict occurs due to the use of dataKey in both RowGroup and Selection.
But that is just a hunch.

Any update on this?

These two features are not compatible by nature, suggestion is to use a button or a link per row.

Wouldn't an ability to pass a different dataKey used for selection or one for grouping solve this issue?
What does it mean "not compatible by nature"?
