Hi,
as I'm increasingly working with 3D stuff again in recent days, I've
*really* come to miss the layer manager in official CVS.
So, I've ported at least a tiny bit of it - in my opinion, one of the most
useful things: LAYER BUTTON COLORS.
- All layer buttons (3d view header, moveto-menu, object buttons) get
drawn in different color shades depending on:
- if they are empty or not
- if an object in them is selected/active or not
This already dramatically improves workflow, as you can instantly see:
- in which layer(s) the current object is
- to which layer(s) you can safely move an object (empty ones)
- which layers you don't need to care about (empty)
For your pleasure and consideration, here's the patch against current CVS
:-)

(I didn't submit it to the patch tracker because it's already full of great
stuff that gets ignored...)
Here's a screenshot:
