SCOPE hierarchy Time and Category dependent

Question

In our project we had requirements according OWNERSHIP model and this requirement i think it would be useful for all clients who use SAP BPC.
I try to explain our requirements using examples. In our system we create ownership structure for ACTUAL category and TIME 2013.12. This ownership structure looks like this (see example below). Everything is fine as you see, all of this covered with standard functionality.
G20070001
    G20020001
    G20030002
    G20040003
but when i try to create new  ownership structure in FORECAST category and Time 2014.12 I face with problem. My structure for Category Forecast must look like this:
G20070001
    G20020001
    G20030002
      G20040003
With standard functionality my second case not be covered, because we can’t set up attribute PARENT_GROUP to depend on TIME and CATEGORY. So I suppose if we can set up GROUPS hierarchy with dependency of CATEGORY and TIME dimensions it can be done.
Has anybody face with the same problem???  If you face and resolve it, it would be great if you share your experience.

Hi Andrea.
Could you please tell how you would expect this hierarchy to work?
How should it look with key date 12.01.2009?
How should it look with key date 13.01.2009?
I believe that it in most cases would make more sense to create the hierarchy like this:
Root
Node22
Node1 01.01.2009 - 12.01.2009
Leaf1 01.01.2009 - 12.01.2009
Leaf2 01.01.2009 - 12.01.2009
Leaf3 01.01.2009 - 12.01.2009
Node22
Node1 13.01.2009 - 31.12.9999
Leaf1 13.01.2009 - 31.12.9999
Leaf2 13.01.2009 - 31.12.9999
Leaf3 13.01.2009 - 31.12.9999
