    Default Ability to create layers from the style manager

    I would like the ability to add new layers to my drawing without having to back out of the style manager.

    Say i'm editing a wall style & I want to put a component on a specific layer. If the layer is not already created, i have to back out of the whole editor, create the layer, then go back to the style editor.
    In civil 3D they have this ability already.
