Next step in Xref layer wish :

Now we got xref-layer grouped at the bottom of layerlist, why doesn't take it one step further?

I've got for example layers from my consultant :
V54xxxx
V57xxxx
.
.
and so on.

When I'm xref their .dwg files I've got
file1_V54xxxx
file2_V54xxxx
at the bottom.

Why not give us a link / alias that make us give these xref layer linked to a headlayer.

Let say :
My V54--R-123 are headlayers for
file1_V54--R-123
file2_V54--R-123

so when I turn on this layer all child-xref layer will turn on.

The link step would be when I attach the xref, then ArchiCad would show us all layers in the xref file in one column and the second column a dropdown list at each row where I could choose a masterlayer for that layer. This would make that we not have to change our layercombinations all the time we include a new xref.
