sample file

Though i didnt explicitly mention it, but thought it would be understood with
the 'drag and drop of an object/group to change the layer arrangement' in point
1 and the 'Move Top, Move Up, Move Down, Move Bottom' mentioned in point 4.

8) Object Order - Objects in the tree list will be sorted based on their
arrangement position in the document.

Currently the Navigator does not show any "above" or "below", but shows the
order in which you go through the shapes using the tab key. That might
correspond to the stack (z-order), but need not. This navigation order
corresponds to the attribute "draw:nav-order" in file format. Save to flat
format to examine and change it. The stack-order is given by the attribute
"draw:z-index" in file format, or in case it is missing by the order in
which the shapes are arranged in the file, which the later ones are in front
of the earlier ones. Currently the UI for setting "draw:nav-order" is
broken. And in case of reading files without "draw:z-index", the document
order is not kept in case of layer "Controls".

Tried saving to fodg and there wasnt any "draw:nav-order" or "draw:z-index"
entries.

With layer entries in the navigator, we could provide layer context menu
modification options like rename, visible, locked, and printable, as well as
visible and locked buttons in the control.

Getting the actions via context menu is not better than currently. For an
enhancement a short click/select option is needed. Currently shift-click on
a layer tab toggles visibility. (I wish to have ctrl-click to toggle
protection in addition.)

Would have to disagree, as most people would never easily discover shift-click
(me included).

Such easy access would be necessary for the Navigator too.

I had mentioned easy access to it with "as well as visible and locked buttons
in the control."

I do not know, whether users would like it, if the layer tabs are removed.
I'm used to them over more than 15 years now, and want them to be kept.

I dont believe they need to be removed, but think they should be hidden by
default (bug 90320).

Layers are part of z-order (or they at least should be), so this should not
be possible (if we want to show the z-order in navigator). "Layout" layer
objects are always below "Controls" layer objects.

I was using the "Controls" layer as an example, but see that "Controls" always
comes above all other layers, but this behaviour is available in other layers
as shown in the attached sample odg.
