So call it the Jar... wait that's taken how about.... Nexus the center of the whole SVG regardless of postion in the layers. Makes sense to me.

Hmm... would "Background (root)" be too long for the layer name?
It's not really a layer, it's the container for the top-level layers...

Well, there's a standard SVG/XML term for it: "root".
I think we're better off using standard terminology for things rather than making up our own.
Given the widespread use of XML, I'm sure there is a standard translation for it in most languages too.
