Is there such plugin?

Break edge is a nice way to control breaking face or stopping it.
some beginners completely confuse by "smart" behavior of SketchUp: dividing faces by lines and "every thing" is glued to other part...... it spears up modeling but it is hard to manage it as "separate" groups.
I wish there was a plugin that each time makes a new "group" for a while so that a "wall" is separate from other parts of model, etc etc, each part be separated, and when stopping the plugin the normal behavior of sketchup starts again.
so is there any plug in to do such thing?
when plugin is on:
start making a group, modeling that group, closing the croup
start new group,.....
when it is off:
Normal sketchup modeling -
lots of beginners do not feel free or comfortable with the gluing behavior of SketchUp.
they prefer something like "Rhino" or "Revit" that makes an "Object" like a wall, window, etc,... that are separate and not gluing....
sometimes it is really hard to learn them make a wall, out of a rectangle that is push/pulled,.... they prefer AutoCad behavior...
so such a plugin that "Starts"/"Stops" , Group making would be handy
or someone else has an Idea?

Hi Majid.
Reading you wish, it sounds like one can easily do the same by creating a Group manually in Sketchup, model some and explode it afterwards?
My spontanious guess is that it would be quite trick to create a plugin that register Sketchup internal Tools-drawing-events into a Group. But again, it wouldent surprise me if this thing already exist...
Or perhaps this could be achieved in a different way, since all you want is NOT having the "break edges behavior" during specific moment, am I right ?
Groups can be unglued by rightclicking and choose unglue btw..
