Hitting Tab To Rename A Layer Targets That Layer
Thanks for implementing the ability to move up and down when renaming layers!
Unfortunately, the function has limited applicability for me, because unless I can determine what the layer is, from the tiny layer thumbnail, I don't actually know what to name the layer.
Consider a geometric character design. Perhaps the ears are circles; the eye whites are circles; the pupils are circles; the glasses are circles, the knees and elbows are circles; the hair is a bunch of circles etc etc etc.
I need the shapes to be highlighted when I'm renaming them so that I know what to rename them.

I have mixed feelings about this.
Like I do renaming, which is a separate operation than selecting, and suddenly loose my data, a specifically made selection I had (that can be a tough operation to make)!
I cry 'I never asked you to select these, you ***!' and go to UV to ask to make it at least an option or just yell 'you made it worse!'I like the cause though. Highlighting an art intended for renaming is a good thing.
But when you finish renaming — the original selection should be restored. And restored Flawlessly, not when like we hit undo in certain cases.Voted. But with caution.
