Illustrated wish

I'd be fantastic if layers could be tagged (similar to the tags on brushes).

This way we could allow for plugins to act (i.e. do stuff) on specific layers
with specific tags assigned to them.

Tags should be user-facing (maybe via the "Layer Properties" dialog) - giving
both users and plugins the opportunity to assign, read and delete tags).

My specific use-case would be to be able to assign, via tags, what layers
should be switched between visible/invisible when I click a button in my
plugin.

E.g. "All layers with tag: 'alien' should be hidden when I click this button"
This will enable artists to work more efficient on objects that overlap.

I've tried to illustrate in the attachment.
I'd really like a plugin to be able to identify all layers with "{alien}" in
the name and for example switch it's visibility or turn an effect on/off etc.

I hope this could be done without contaminating the layer names.

(also see my suggestion in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406763
regarding layer name contamination)
