Children layers

[Gariam]

Maybe it's already in the roadmap, not sure what this "Scene layer hierarchy and composition" refers to.
It would be useful to be able to create children layers to existing main layers, specifically particle systems. What i mean is that right now there is no way to apply effects to particle systems without affecting layers behind it.
I think there's some tecnical reason why effects can be applied to every layer exept for particle system so i'm suggesting an alternative solution, that is children layers.
Effects applied to a children layer will be seen only on it's parent layer.
I only speak for 2D scenes, because i've never used the other types.

+1 what the OP said, parented layers would be a very useful feature. ^^

But as far as I know this is in the making, or at least on the roadmap
