Active layer selection decoupled from layer options.

Currently toggling  visibility [eye]  or info [...] buttons  for a layer selects that layer as the active layer.
suggested feature or change would be to decouple layer options from layer selection.

Turning a layer invisible currently selects that layer.  Which leads to drawing  on the invisible layer.  Most of the time resulting in having to hit undo and double check what layer is active.  It's just an odd workflow and counter  to what most drawing applications do.

Totaly agree! Additionally I would prefer that invisible layers can't be manipulated at all.

Some lock/unlock layer can be cool too.

Good idea, I will change that for the next version.
