Could someone mentorship me? You could start by making a nice proposal, perhaps including a mockup of how the user interface for this should look like and how it should behave. We can then help you to implement this, perhaps starting with layer locking since that is probably going to be easier.

It's not in the GIMP core, but I wrote a plugin for managing layers called GFXLayers, which is part of the Graphics Muse Tools collection of plugins. Select a set of layers from a list, click on the Hide Selected toggle and hit Apply. You can Group them in the sense that their group chain icon is set too. But mostly this plugin is to allow more advanced and interactive layer alignment than what the built in Align Visible Layers provides. This isn't exactly what you're after - you probably want to be able to save the groupings and work with them at any time in the future. This plugin could probably be extended to do this by using a GIMP parasite or some other feature. I just haven't looked into that.

[Gimp-developer] Missing layer features
Hi, As a gimp user I've always missed two things, both related to layers. One is not having an option of locking a layer. The other is not being able to group layers, so that I can hide / show all the layers inside the group. Both of this appears as bugs in bugzilla. The first one dates back to 2001 [1], the other is from 2002 [2]. So I came to ask, is this, apart from the bugs reports, being worked on? If it's not, how can I contribute? I'm no expert in gdk / gtk programming, but I'm willing to learn whatever it takes to get these features in gimp. With that said, I would like to know where should I start? Could someone mentorship me?
