[MapQuery] getLayerByOpenLayersId?

Hi all,

We decided that we don't need getLayerById since to know the layer.id you need the layer object to start with. A wise choice, however now I have a new issue. The 'AddLayer' event from OpenLayers returns a OpenLayers Layer object. There is currently no easy way to get the corresponding MapQuery layer. For the LayerManager, which should add a layer to the manager after a layer has been added, I need to get the layer object.

I could write a function to get layer by OpenLayers ID. Would it make sense to add this function to core? Or should the addlayer event somehow return the mapquery layer.

Steven
