Description

Select a map item in the layout
Scroll to the variables frame in the item properties and check the map_layers variable; it shows `[<map_layer>, <map_layer>,&...]`. I'd have expected to see layer names instead. Checking this variable in the expression dialog of a property of the map item also displays the same output (at the bottom of the dialog)

Those are layer values though, not strings

Ah, right. Not sure what would then be the "fix". Should we close this?
