if i understood you correctly, i share you opinion!

the problem is that currently the feature is *not* implemented that way!

currently, if you want to select across several layers you have to
activate the setting for each layer.

as already stated in my other mail, since no discussion seems to be
possible on this topic (don't know why...) i will simply prepare a
patch, make a screencast of the result and hope that my code gets
integrated into trunk.

can't do more.

ciao
