Description
I was wondering if there was a way to explicitly specify the layer that a node should be on?
For example, given the following :
Can I instead, specify something like the following pseudo code?
SetLayer(0, [E, D, B A]);
SetLayer(1, [F, C]);
SetLayer(2, [G]);
SetLayer(3, [Z]);
SetLayer(4, [H]);
So I get something like this ?
Basically, what I want is to be able to say that [E, D, B A] should be on one layer, [F, C] on another layer, G another, Z another and H another. I hope that makes sense.
I've tried using PinNodesToSameLayer, but I cant get the result I want for G, Z and H
Thank you

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing PinNodesToSameLayer behavior and the graph-layout API; the issue does not name a file, test, or entry point. Done should mean callers can explicitly assign nodes to the requested layers and obtain the illustrated ordering, including the separate layers for G, Z, and H.
