Better management of layers (duplicate, drag & drop)
Registered by
DannyKing
Layers in Inkscape are great but they could be improved immeasurably for me if I had the following ability:
* Drag and drop layers to alter their position and to make them into sub-layers or move them out of sub-layers.
* Duplicate a layer, including all of its content.
Thanks

2009-09-09 Will Pittenger You can duplicate layers now, but you have to right-click a layer or use the XML editor and dup the node.
