Yes, difficult question. I think it would be easier to rely on the layer
name by default
(and it would make macro more independant from the UI),
But maybe it would be possible to add an option to switch from layerName to
selectedLayer during macro recording when it is really needed (the
parameter value
would be changed from "MyLayer" to "${SelectedLayer}" for example.
The question becomes even more complex with selected features...
