Allow layer selector for essential graphics
Layer selector isn't available for essential graphics at this point, I'd like it to be.
Here's how I was specifically interested in using it. I want to set up text to have multiple reveal animations available. If I can make the layer selector available, I can point to different text layers with the start points I want and then using the text engine (or interpolation expressions) send the text from that start point to it's final location. The only way I could find to do the same thing now was to use a slider and map each number to a specific location. That takes a lot more setup. Layer control also has the advantage of being able to name each layer.
The only issue I would have with doing things this way is that all the layers are available and not all of them would be useful to what I'm trying to do. Maybe there should be a specific layer selector for essential graphics that also can pick from a limited group of layers.

Absolutely agree with Micah, currently I have to include multiple check boxes in my templates which just complicates the UI for the end user. This could be easily fixed with the layer selector.
