Comment 15 for bug 1251393

Maybe a step in the right direction would be to add the edge cuts layer similarly as the currently grayed out layers (Cmts, Dwgs, Eco, ...). And remove the automatic transfer of drawings on this layer.

This would allow users to view footprints with edge cuts defined and with enough determination to draw on it. (That would indirectly also communicate that there might be some dangers connected with using this layer.)

It would even allow for the usecase i mentioned above where a user of the imperial grid needs to modify the metric footprint found in the official library. (Currently this would result in the edge cut drawing being moved to some other layer. After the modification the user would need a text editor to get it back to the edge cuts layer.)
