Description

If a layer is missing (e.g. wrong referenced layer), the app becomes extremely slow. We should just ignore the layer for that session similar to QGIS and not try to render it on every map panning/zooming.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the slowdown with a missing referenced layer, then trace the map-rendering work triggered by panning and zooming. Done means the missing layer is ignored for the session and repeated map interactions no longer attempt to render it.
