This is no longer an issue since the layers palette has been attached to the main Inkscape window. I suspect it's a convienent workaround since you can't touch another layer during the delay of a redraw.

I'm creating a set of amimated cursors which involves exporting each frame from Inkscape. One of the animations involves reducing the opacity of a number of layers for each frame. I'm finding when I change the opacity of one layer then select another layer this layers opacity will also change. Quite frustrating as I've exported the frames for an animation 5 times now and each time I've found there's been a mistake with opacity on a layer :)
I'm not sure if the problem is related to the amount of time Inkscape takes to redraw the image after changing opacity - I think if I select the next layer before the redraw is finished the setting is carried across. I've used blur so the redraw can be a little slow.
I'm currently experiancing this in the dev build but I was having the same issue on another PC where I think I was running 0.45
