I think we do not need another bug. The problems are already covered by bug
90244, bug 90320, bug 89130, and bug 56498 and their duplicates.
And look at bug 99648 "[META] Improve Layer Handling", whether your ideas not
already reported.


(In reply to andreas_k from comment #1)
In general it's not very common to have layers arranged that way ordinary
you have layers arranged in a list grouped by folders and you can show/hide
them with an symbol or lock them by an symbol.

Which applications do you have in mind? Remember, that layers in Draw do not
determine the stacking order.

So my proposal for the layer tabbed bar on bottom of draw is:

1. rename at least Layout to Layer1, so that it's easier to understood that
we talk about layers (in calc you also call them Sheet1).

Renaming the label "Layout" to something different is a task of the translation
teams. Only the English string is in source (sd/inc/strings.hrc).
But keep in mind, that you need very good reasons to rename something that has
its name already for twenty years.

2. remove Controls and Dimension Line cause you can add new layers (like in
calc) but you can't delete the predefined one (Controls and Dimension Line
can't be deleted)

I have already looked, whether it is possible to get rid of these two layers. 
But there are so many internal consequences to the code that I've refrained
from trying.


3. move settings for Visible, Printable and Locked to the right click so if
you would like to use them you don't need an dialog to hide or lock the
layer.
You can use click+Shift (hide/show), click+Ctrl (lock/unlock) and
click+Shift+Ctrl (printable/not printable).
