Comment(by cmbarton):

 It also affects querying and labels for d.vect. Additionally, it looks
 like -1 is the default layer selected for all other v.* modules. This may
 or may not cause problems. I understand your point.

 But the most common case for vectors is to have one layer. Someone who
 wants to display more than one layer can switch to -1 for display as
 easily as someone who wants to use layer 1 instead of -1. But it seems we
 should default to the most common case rather than less common ones.
