make deleting layouts safer and provide undelete option
The layout dialog shows autosaved layouts on the right. Unfortunately, the saved layouts also show up in this list. When deleting autosaved layouts, the user can easily delete a saved layout as well. There is no 'are you sure? dialog, nor do I see an undelete option. Can the two types of layout be separated, and an undelete option be added, please?

I strongly support this recommendation. As a software engineer of 37 years (20 years as a full stack developer), I can say that the way Logos is handling this feature is highly counter-intuitive. Many of us have lost hours of work in our saved layouts because we intuitively thought the list on the right was merely the historical cached snapshot of both named and unnamed layouts. The only way to delete a Saved Layout should be by selecting it (on the left hand side) and deleting it through the context menu. Clearing your auto-save history of snapshots should have zero effect on what is seen on the left panel of Saved items.
