[Therion] Fwd: PDF output: layers nested?

Hello,
I currently play around with the layer feature.

Currently it is so, that each "select"ed map goes in its own layer, 
which is fine.
In my data there are nested maps however. They get collated into one big 
layer.

I don't know PDF specifics, but it would be very handy to have "nested" 
layers, i.e. submaps as separate layers in the main layer. If sublayersa 
re not possible, it would be cool to have an optional option at the 
export config command to instruct therion to not collate submaps into a 
bigger layer, but add each map as independent layer.


Something like this:

---- therion source ----
map A
  A1
  A2
endmap
map B
  B1
endmap


map A1
   scrap1
endmap
map A2
   scrap2
endmap
map B1
   scrap3
endmap
------------------------

----- PDF layer list -----
- A
   + A1
   + A2
- B
   + B1
---------------------------
