I'm thinking of a frame that visualizes the actual drawable rectangle  
of the layer … that is, for

\definelayer
	[mylayer]
	[x=78mm,
	 y=3mm,
	 height=43.5mm,
	 width=128mm]

I would like a frame to be drawn around the box whose dimensions and  
location on the page are specified by x, y, height and width. I'd also  
be fine if this area could be shaded with some background colour.

With \setlayerframed I seem to only get a frame which fits the actual  
content snugly, e.g. if I draw the text "Hello world" into the layer  
then a small frame will be drawn around this text only and not around  
the entire layer box …

See what I mean?
