Bug Description
Previously, after placing a via, you could select a new layer by pressing "+" or "-" keys and continue routing on that layer. Now during routing, when you place a via, the active layer automatically switches to the other side of the board. "+" and "-" keys don't do anything, not even change it back to the previous layer (however you can still do that with PG_UP and PG_DWN keys) The only way to pick it up on one of the middle layers is to stop routing switch the layer and then start routing again.

@Art, I just pushed a change that might have affected this today. Can you retest on the most recent version and see if this still is a problem?
