After selecting a non-root layer, the "(root)" in the layer selection menu (the one along the bottom edge of the window) disappears. For example, if the drawing has three layers: root, "layer 1" and "layer 2", after selecting "layer 1", only "layer 1" and "layer 2" will remain in the layer selection menu.
(If I now click an object that is on the root layer, the "(root)" reappears in the layer selection menu. So the bug is not exactly serious, provided that I can select some object that is in the root layer.)
As far as I remember that was a deliberate feature introduced by Mental, in order to reduce confusion of users seeing a mysterious "root" in every file.
