Automatic check out should have option to check out any object regardless of layer

[Christiaan]

We should have an option to "Automatically check out objects" full stop.

 

I think I understand the rationale for restricting automatic check out to just the layer(s) that the objects you're currently checking out are on, but I never want to work in this way.

 

When I'm checking out objects automatically I want automatic check out to check out any object I need going forward. I don't care what layer it's on.

 

There is never a point that I think, oh, thank you VW for asking me if I wanted to check out this object because it's on a layer that I haven't checked anything out of yet.
