Sure. I've assigned the issue to Michael because he normally works on this
kind of thing, but feel free to take it or work with him :)

You are not wrong at all! :) We had lots of discussions as to how this
should work. If I remember correctly, the combination of layer name + git
url should be unique. You could in theory have two layers with the same
name as long as they point to different git repos; and even two layers
pointing to the same git repo as long as they have different names. But we
were having trouble implementing this, so to simplify things a little bit,
we set a rule saying that layer names within a certain project should be
unique. The bug you found seems connected to this, since it looks like
Toaster might be complaining about layer names existing in other projects.

This doesn't mean this is the right thing to do though: we should probably
think about this again at some point. If you have any ideas, let us know :)
