How should more than eight layers be handled at the GUI level? Right now it makes sense to have them down the left side of the screen since they all fit, but once we go to thirty-two layers they no longer fit on the screen. What is the best way to do this? To things come to my mind, a scrolling column of buttons for the layers, which I'm not sure all GUI widget kits support, or two columns of sixteen buttons.
