This is under Window -> Move Document to Next/Previous Group.

However, as I've already said before on this list, the splitting concept 
has changed quite a bit after the release candidate. All documents are 
now conceptually accessible in each split view, and the groups are gone. 
This is on the 'master' branch in the git repository, though.

That's certainly something to look at later. For sure it would be nice 
if changes were saved automatically. However, I know some people use the 
list of open files to keep track of their current working context.
