My current workflow is Lightroom mainly > Photoshop CC for Layers, Actions etc. I also use Nik [Google] plugins. This set-up is absolutely spot-on and covers just about any image scenario likely to crop up [for me]. The problem is that PS CC is complete overkill for my purposes and is likely to get very expensive, when considering the accumulating CC Membership contributions.
If Lightroom had Layers I'd be in heaven. Anyone any insider knowledge as to if/when this could happen?
I appreciate that Adobe needs to restrict competition from its siblings but hey, PSE has Layers, just doesn't have 16bit or ProPhoto RGB functionality.
Kindest,

No one here works for Adobe, so we don't really know.
Nevertheless, if I had to guess, I would say that Layers will not be coming to Lightroom any time soon.
