 Replying to [comment:1 annakrat]:

 bahavior makes sense.
 As most of (all?) GIS programs allow to query any layer despite it's
 visibility status, it makes sense to keep as is.

 Note - ArcGIS and QGIS both allow to choose "query only visible layers" as
 an option but default usually is "query all/active". If such behaviour is
 wanted, it should be opt-in, like in other GIS packages.

 Thanks for fix. Closing it as various query options should be a separate
 enhancement.
