System Information
Ubuntu 14.04 Nvidia Titan Black

Blender Version
Broken: 2.74.5 1a0fb7e
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
When changing active object to another layer presing alt key, objects of selection are still staying in their previous layer.
Selection is at same time on same layer than active object, on their previous layer and all layers that have been activated during alt left click.
For selection, layers are just enabled . Alt lmb or shift alt lmb have same action for selection except for active object.

Maybe it is seen as a plus. We can use M shortcut to move objects or bones to a different visibility layer.

But for collision layers of rigid bodies, it is an unwanted behaviour.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
MVE_collision_layers.blend
In this file, start an alt lmb on first collision layer, move mouse cursor to fifth layer before releasing alt lmb.
Check collision layers for Cube.001.

The problem here is that layer buttons are not simply using RNA (the data API), they have a custom callback which changes their behavior. ui_layer_but_cb, and custom behavior like this isn't automatically copied to others.

Will leave open, it would be great to solve this before release if some good way can be found.
