It appears to work identically for me. If I select a row on the desktop and press G or use Reorganize→Group, my selected row is moved down and to the right, and a blank line inserted to be the group parent. On the iPad, if I select a row, enter Edit mode, and select Group, the same thing happens.

If this isn't what you are doing, can you describe exactly what you are doing and seeing, in unambiguous terms that will allow someone else to reproduce it?
