Now I got it. You keep a 'by layer' index of entities. It's a good
solution, I agree. However when loading/saving/editing a pad (or
computing the netlist) it's way more handy to have the list of the
layers a pad is on, so I'd keep it around in the pad (not necessarily
a bitmask, see other message).
