To-do:

• Basic backend for recursive layer crawling
• Selection logic
• Replicate bottom toolbar
• Easily rename in bulk with Tab
• Active Layer logic
• Multiple scanners to prompt new crawl for panel update: selection, layer number, pageItem number, activeLayer
• Easily rename layers
• Inject pageItem.typename into input if name is fully deleted
• Sorting/click/drag logic
• Generate preview boxes for each layer/sublayer
• Easily traverse layers or select multiple with Arrow Up/Down
• Easily traverse inside/fold/unfold layer with Arrow Right/Left
• Dynamic context menu to replace the busy vanilla Flyout menu
• Automatic stripping of ' copy' from layer names
• Subtle bodymovin' animations for all icons (vanilla Layers panel has animated arrows)
