Description:
when moving objects out of layer the object vanishes while dragging as soon as mouse leaves the parent layer. As soon as objects are dropped outside of the layer they are drawn again.

Special problem on nested layers: when a nested layer is dropped outside of its parent, then the layer is not removed from the parent layer hierarchy (can be seen in layer-pane) - only drawn outside.
In this situation, the child-layer cannot be selected/manipulated anymore and is only redrawn when paren layer is redrawn.

How to repeat:
- new document
- new EER Diagram
- create a layer
- create a 2nd layer inside the first one
- move the inner layer out of the parent layer

notice that you are not able to select it anymore using mouse (selection-rectangle even temporarily erases the figure until parent layer is refreshed)

nesting of layers is disabled now. moving objects in/out to/from layers works correctly now. tested in SVN 3126.

Dragging objects out of a layer did not work properly.
