I know I can have 1 parent element and 1 child element in my own custom app.config section like so:

<sectionGroup>
<section>
    <element />
</section>
</sectionGroup>

My question is, can I have one or more levels of nesting more than this? Like so:

<biggestSectionGroup>
<biggerSectionGroup>
<sectionGroup>
    <section>
        <element />
    </section>
</sectionGroup>
</biggerSectionGroup>
</biggestSectionGroup>
