GWC Layer groups not using pre-generated tiles from layers.

Issue Type:

Description:

I’m not sure if this is a bug or feature request; change as applicable.

I have a number of layers with scale thresholds which have GWC tile layers generated for them for those layers.
I have then grouped these layers together into a layer group.
Everything is using the same gridset and has the same settings for filetype (png) & projection.

The problem is, GWC is creating a new tileset in the layered group rather than using the pre-existing tiles from the separate layers.
This is sub-optimal because I’m going to end up with multiple tiles of the exact same thing.

Although - I have another group which contains five vector layers which make up one layer group and I’d want them all treated as a single layer group rather than separate layers. Maybe an option?
