Bug Description

It seems that layer names are hashed so that even sublayer names conflict
with toplevel-layer names or names of sublayers of other parent layers.
This is quite restricting. Depending on how the names must be usable
internally, one could prepend the name of the parent layer to the name of
the sublayer. This should make the hash value unique again. If the binding
symbol may not be used in the name, there should be no problem for dialogs
and other routines to find out the correct subname. The binding symbol
could be the special "?" sign that is used to show an uninterpretable
character.
