Description
For composer legend items, it would be good if there was an "add layer" button on the "Item" tab under "Legend items".
This would allow the user to choose from a list of all the layers that aren't currently in the legend, to add back a layer that had been removed from the legend. (To add a layer currently you need to click the "All" button, which loses any other customisations, e.g. layer reordering and renaming)
3339.patch 
- Patch to allow adding of layers to legend, ability to turn off auto update and adds icons to some of the legend buttons.

This enhancement would minimise the need for , and if it was implemented then I think reverting should be considered (or maybe there could be an option to control the automatic adding - perhaps a composer item option?). I can't speak for others, but I normally lock the layers in my composer maps, so it is annoying that a new layer added to the project is automatically added into existing composer legends :)
