It doesn't do this by default, but it can be made to work.  Edit the
page template and change the line

    <!--wiki:$Group.SideBar Main.SideBar-->

to be something like

    <!--wiki:$Group.$Name-SideBar $Group.SideBar Main.SideBar-->

For MyGroup.SomePage, this will use the first of MyGroup.SomePage-SideBar,
MyGroup.SideBar, and Main.SideBar.
