Artboard-specific Layers
When working with multiple artboards, it would be very helpful to have artboard-specific layers displayed on the Layers panel as opposed to one long blob of all layers from all artboards.

+1 definitely would be a more productive flow

This could work, and would be nice.
However, what would also be nice, would be artboards that were assigned to layers such that I could turn them (the artboard) off by turning off the layer they were on.

What build do you have?
I have the same needs as you and as I know there will be canvas layer that will hold global art. -

With the new Artboard-specific Layers all artwork is now locked to a layer.
This removes the ability to have artwork which spans Artboards.
We frequently need to provide individual artboards for production based on segments of a larger piece of artwork. (For example individual PDFs for each panel of a large tradeshow stand).
This doesn't appear possible with the new feature.

Separate layers option for each artboard, with option for a universal layers view panel. Maybe have it as a little icons, tabs, or a scroll window above the window for layers.

I did not get that the layers list is common to all artboards.... Now I understand I have changed them and effected other artboard :-0
In Sketch each artboard has its own layers. -

The layers should be specific to the active artboard. When I select something on the active artboard, nothing else, on any other artboard, should be selected. I agree with the comments below.

The layer panel becomes practically useless once you're working with a few artboards.

I'm tired of all art boards being in one layer panel. The panel should reflect which art board you are working on.
