Often I find myself needing to copy/paste to change the position of an item so that it is layered properly.

Apparently, the options to “Sent to Front” and “Send to Back” have ben added, but I don’t see how to use them. This also doesn’t solve the problem fully.

We need to be able to move by a single layer as well. The additional options to “Move Forward” or “Move Back”, would completely resolve this and the number of other requests for the same thing.

Ideally, using the lasso tool to select any number of objects including handwriting, or long pressing on an image should give the additional options to edit Layer Position:
Send Back or Move Back
Send to Back or Move to Back
Send Forward or Move Forward
Send to Front or Move to Front.
