Jon,
 
I have noticed few issues with a new dialog then working with sublayers. Those are probably known, but I will write them just in case:
- Only the top level layers can be expanded, so if I have 4 or more levels of sublayers, no way to see those in new dialog
- If having many layers and sublayers, expanding some layers expands dialog, but collapsing does not shrink it. If layer window size goes well beyond the screen size I cannot resize the window any more (using win2003)
- if expanding several layers, selecting some layer collapses everything that is expanded.
 
Hope this will be useful
  Andrius

That's the known order problem.

I chased things down a little more, and I think it comes from my fix
for an infinite loop stopping the loop, but not finishing up items
correctly. Should be simple.

That's actually a bug in the layer-selector. It doesn't notice
changes for those, but since there was no UI way to change them
without having to select their parent by selecting them in the XML
editor, so it wasn't seen before this.

Switching the layer selector to use the Layer Manager should take
care of all that
