Ok, so pulling this in is not a no-brainer and it does concern stuff
with a completely different set of functionality.  So strike this
proposal, it really wasn't going to make things simpler.

I remember that the decision to sort the remove-layers numerically was
based on the desire not to have logical circles: with this sort of
ordering, the behavior of lower numbers does not depend on that of
higher numbers.  Any other solution would likely need to maintain that
property.
