Re: assembly layer

 

I think that something like this:

will be very useful in assemblying, testing, repairing, measurements.
If components are very small and there is no usefull silkscreen printed on pcb many users need the layer with outlines and references instead of silkscreen. The rules to convention may be eg: max line width (smaller if necessary), max text size (smaller if necessary), drawing reflects components dimensions, no graphics inside.
