How to translate objects on several layers?

[chr home se]

Hi

I'm using 0.94, and I wonder how I should go about translating many
objects on several different layers an equal distance. Right now the 
only (practical) solution I've found is the following:

* For each layer
** Select the relevant blocks
** Groupify the blocks
** Move the new group object
* For each layer
** Ungroup the previously created group object

The reason I create the group is to make it easier for me if I don't move 
the objects on one layer the correct distance and discovers this at a late 
stage.

Ideally I would of course like to select objects from several layers at 
once and translate them... is there a reason why this is not possible?

regards
/Christian
