What if the anti-layer isn't even a real layer - just an option while editing a layer, to "draw vacuum". For example, if we redesigned the layer-selector, we could cram icons into a 4x4 grid for each layer: +--------+---------+ | active | visible | +--------+---------+ | locked | vacuum | +------------------+ I know there is opposition to making the layer-selector take up any more space than it does, but I think we could make these 8x8 or 10x10 icons and still remain space-conservative. I don't like the idea of layer groups, and I certainly don't think we should do something that (pretty much) requires them to work. So having anti-layers sounds wrong to me.
