Great work Aníbal, and thanks!

Just to clear up any confusion, at the moment this is effectively a fork of the 
OE layer index code, and I still have the task to try to help get the RRS  
changes merged into the OE layer index master branch, which I fully intend to 
do. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to do that yet but luckily the code 
for the OE layer index isn't changing very much at all at the moment, so the 
two codebases are unlikely to diverge much while we are waiting for that to be 
done.

Cheers,
Paul
