If you have a display group within a sub form, the elements contained by the display group do not get namespaced within the rendered form correctly, which leads to issues during form submission.

For example:

$subForm = new Zend_Form_SubForm();
$subForm->setLegend('Attributes');

$subForm->addElement('text', 'foo')
        ->addElement('text', 'bar')
        ->addDisplayGroup(array('foo', 'bar'), 'foobar');

$form = new Zend_Form();
$form->addSubForm($subForm, 'attributes');
echo $form->render(new Zend_View());

One would expect the following HTML:

<form enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" action="" method="post">
    <dl class="zend_form">
        <dt></dt>
        <dd><fieldset id="attributes">
            <legend>Attributes</legend>
            <dl>
                <dt></dt>
                <dd><fieldset id="foobar"><dl>
                    <dt></dt>
                    <dd><input type="text" name="attributes[foo]" id="attributes-foo" value=""></dd>
                    <dt></dt>
                    <dd><input type="text" name="attributes[bar]" id="attributes-bar" value=""></dd>
                </dl></fieldset></dd>
            </dl>
        </fieldset></dd>
    </dl>
</form>

But the following is actually received:

<form enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" action="" method="post">
    <dl class="zend_form">
        <dt></dt>
        <dd><fieldset id="attributes">
            <legend>Attributes</legend>
            <dl>
                <dt></dt>
                <dd><fieldset id="foobar"><dl>
                    <dt></dt>
                    <dd><input type="text" name="foo" id="foo" value=""></dd>
                    <dt></dt>
                    <dd><input type="text" name="bar" id="bar" value=""></dd>
                </dl></fieldset></dd>
            </dl>
        </fieldset></dd>
    </dl>
</form>
