Yousuf pointed out that objects from different parts in the hierarchy can belong to the same layer. So the layer is not part of the hierachy and cannot accurately be shown as such. It can be shown as a column in the page/group/object hierarchy though. For layers, no separate view needs to be invented, there already is one: the tabs at the bottom.
