Fabric.js - Grouped iText not editable

Question

The title says all. When a fabric.ITextis part of a fabric.Group, it no longer reacts like a editable text.

Here is a use-case: http://jsfi

Thanks for the answer, However it doesn't make sure only the items in the group are regrouped, we must change 'canvas.forEachObject' to 'groupItems' as it will try to put back all items in the canvas only those belonged to the group. See the following code

// ungroup objects in group
var groupItems = []
var ungroup = function (group) {
    groupItems = group._objects;
    group._restoreObjectsState();
    canvas.remove(group);
    for (var i = 0; i < groupItems.length; i++) {
        canvas.add(groupItems[i]);
    }
    // if you have disabled render on addition
    canvas.renderAll();
};

// Re-group when text editing finishes
var dimensionText = new fabric.IText("Dimension Text", {
    fontFamily: 'Comic Sans',
    fontSize: 14,
    stroke: '#000',
    strokeWidth: 1,
    fill: "#000",
    left: 170,
    top: 60
});
dimensionText.on('editing:exited', function () {
    var items = [];
    groupItems.forEach(function (obj) {
        items.push(obj);
        canvas.remove(obj);
    });
    var grp = new fabric.Group(items.reverse(), {});
    canvas.add(grp);
    grp.on('mousedown', fabricDblClick(grp, function (obj) {
        ungroup(grp);
        canvas.setActiveObject(dimensionText);
        dimensionText.enterEditing();
        dimensionText.selectAll();
    }));
});
