[GeoNode-users] Change naming scheme of Layers URL to layer_ID

[Toni Schönbuchner]

Hi list,

layers uses a URL schemes like:
	http://example.com//layers/<layer_name>
	> f.e. http://demo.geonode.org/layers/geonode%3Aforest_reserves_only_7

Maps use

	http://example.com//layers/<map_id>
	> f.e. http://demo.geonode.org/maps/537

It would feel more persistent to request layers by there ID as well.

> f.e. http://demo.geonode.org/layers/50

Can one explain why the decision was made to use layer_name instead of ID?
(maybe because of geoserver calls ?).

And if changing this means to overcome many obstacles (or if it´s in best
case just the URL an views.py of /layers app).

Thanks a lot!

Toni
