This was a nice effort but it's not really anything more than a
scripted way to automate the use of the shy feature by using a null
with a | in the name. The plug-in may be useful in projects with a
huge number of layers but it's not really the same as Photoshop's
Layer Groups.

I tend to organize by Label Color and Label group on most projects
that involve more then a few layers. I also tend to use the shy
feature quite a bit with projects that involve a lot of text effects.
