Indeed, but if I want both sides to always have the same
content, I need to double-code every content insertion, or
write a macro to do that for me. It just moves the trickery
somewhere else :)

My expectation was that when \setlayer is used without
specification on a doublesided layer, it would set the
content for both sides. Alternatively, a way to specify
(even via presets) a position which is page-parity dependent
would be a good thing.
