  <h2>Grouping sidecar extensions</h2>
  <p>This field defines which extensions will lead to file grouping. Each extension should be separated by a semi-colon and should include the starting dot.</p>
  <p>Grouped files will appear as one in file views. For example, it is useful when browsing directories containing two files for the same image (as raw+jpeg files generated by some cameras).</p>
