[ANN] New plugin AAG|LayerComps

[Pete Haworth]

That sounds great!  If I'm understanding it correctly, it will get round one
of my pet peeves about changing card layouts in the IDE - many of the
changes cannot be undone and even if you close the card and say you don't
want to save, the changes are already saved.
