What selecting the box and clicking the link accomplish? (which link btw)

The "check to mark for multiple actions" is a well known paradigm, 
Google mail uses exactly the same to perform deletion or marking
for spam (with checks, not x), I'm positive other mail services
do the same (our internal web mail works the same way for example).

I see. A red X might be clearer for the time being, at least up until we 
decide to use the marks for make some other kind of mass operation (mass
change the srs or something like that).

We had a delete per row and it was terrible, how do you remove more
than one layer, one by one?
Consider the needs of people managing tens of layers,
not the usual dozen demo ones.

Also, focusing on workspaces is problematic, the table like interface
is one for every page. What we do for workspaces we do for everything
else both for consistency sake and to avoid having to maintain different
code for each page.
