A layer blocking the view on what you want to undo is sometimes an issue for me
too.
Often you can work around that by using "isolate current layer", but sometimes
it's very hard to see/judge without layer compositing, not to mention you must
not get confused what layer it really was you were (accidentally) painting on.

I was wondering, since "Isolate Active Group" mostly makes the "soloing layer"
feature (or whatever shift-clicking the visibility icon is called, it's not
even mentioned in the manual) obsolete, and the latter also messes badly with
the undo stack in 5.x.

So, could we have temporary visibility overrides instead that don't get added
to the undo stack or saved with document? Basically, if you shift-click on the
visibility icon, it would toggle visibility and turns it blue (or whatever
color that stands out) to indicate this is not the actual document state but
just a viewing option.
That would really help me with the dilemma that depending on the situation,
toggling layer visibility is intended as image state change or just a display
option, like showing/hiding guides, grid, assistants (some of my layers can be
called guides, I guess).
