I have a product with two groups of custom options and I want one group to appear in the "product info column" and the other to appear in the "block after info column".
Currently, on the product page > design tab there is only one option for the layout which controls where all product options display. There is no way to control this individually.

This is not a very elegant solution - but if you must use custom options and you have access / ability to modify the theme I suggest the following:
getChildChildHtml('',true,true)
in the base theme-or-
Name the options via a naming convention; e.g. "Region 1 - Option 1", "Region 2 - Option 2", etc.
In the template, parse the name of all options and store in two separate arrays to be output later.
For the second option - get a list of options from a product:
Parse through the options and filter by naming convention:
Now loop over
$region1
and$region2
, echoing as you go.
