Comment 9 for bug 182002

Thanks -

I have tried to clarify the interface by splitting up the GUI from the
code, so I could have 3 INX files all calling the same py file and
manually providing a parameter in the inx so the py code knew which
was calling, but have not been able to get it working. I believe
there is a bugtracker request to have hidden parameters in the gui
form so it might have to wait for that.

When (and if) that is done, I would propose a new effect menu "Change
Z-Order" and have a number of sub-items there:
 - Directional restack (0-360 degrees)
 - Orthagonal restack (4 options, l-r, r-l, t-b and b-t. redundant to
the previous one, but clearer for some people)
 - Radial restack (2 options, inward and outward)
 - Reverse Z-Order (new - no options)
 - Randomize Z-Order (new - no options)
 - Rotate Z-Order (new- integer to specify +/- how many elements to
rotate in the stack)

I have the code finished for all of them, but the GUI was geting
really ugly with that many options, hence the desire to break them
out, and also why I never updated.

Thanks for your time.
