Bricklink should implement something in Studio where you can group pieces together.
so that if you were making a robot mask or a robot leg you could make it and
group the pieces together so that they can be easily moved around without highlighting
the entire thing and making mistake in the process.

You can suggest it in the dedicated stud.io forum

Studio already include submodels.

Select parts, create submodel, that's it.

You can alway break one to update it, then recreate the submodel back again.

You can edit submodels without “breaking” them (“release” in Studio’s terms).
You can nest submodels (make a hierarchy of them), copy/paste them as if they
were just big parts, and many other things.
