Detailed Description

Layer tree node points to a map layer.

The node can exist also without a valid instance of a layer (just ID). That means the referenced layer does not need to be loaded in order to use it in layer tree. In such case, resolveReferences() method can be called once the layer is loaded.

A map layer is supposed to be present in one layer tree just once. It is however possible that temporarily a layer exists in one tree more than just once, e.g. while reordering items with drag and drop.
