[josm-dev] How about virtual layers?

[Tobias Wendorff]

Dear Developers,

I've got the dram of virtual layers in JOSM.

1. OSM-file with various layer-tags: -1, +1, +2, +3 etc.
2. JOSM creates virtual layers for earch layer loaded.

For example:
- a highway without layer 0 => virtual layer 0
- a leisure area with layer +1 => virtual layer 1
- a building with layer +2 => virtual layer 2

This would make it possible to edit only the selected layer.
What do you think?

Best regards,
Tobias
