 ### Added
 
+- We added the ability to add the current selection to a newly created group. [#11449](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/11449)
 - We added support for selecting and using CSL Styles in JabRef's OpenOffice/LibreOffice integration for inserting bibliographic and in-text citations into a document. [#2146](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/2146), [#8893](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/8893)
 - We added Tools > New library based on references in PDF file... to create a new library based on the references section in a PDF file. [#11522](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/11522)
 - When converting the references section of a paper (PDF file), more than the last page is treated. [#11522](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/11522)
