It would be great if you could group multiple objects on multiple layers and have them redistribute to the original layers when ungrouped. For Example, you have multiple elements that you want to center on the page as a group, but then want them back in their respective layers.

Yes please to "Ungroup remembers Layers" in Illustrator and I would also suggest that Indesign inherit the "Save selection" feature from Illustrator, while we're at it.

long, long time ago, Freehand had a great function (indeed it hat a lot of great functions that I am still missing in Illustrator): When you grouped Objects from different Layers, it remembered the original layers of these objects. So you could group them, do with them whatever you wanted and after ungrouping all objects went back to their original layers what was a very useful function. I whish, Illustrator wound offer something like this, too...
