Blender Version
Broken: 2.79b, 2.79-b843753

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Perform the "Transfer Weights" in the Weight Paint mode.
After you change the "Source Layers" option to "By Name" or "By Order",
you can't go back to the "Active Layer", it disappears.

see also #45991.
Finding the logic of "reverse_transfer" a bit confusing here:

tooltip is confusing then ["from active to selected" is wrong... I know it's a generic operator but still...]
we cant select a source group (its reversed now -- for the generic operator you cant select a destination group since we may transfer to several objects at once, which makes sense, but...)
looks like the enums are also mixed up ( By Name [DT_LAYERS_NAME_DST] will act as All Layers [DT_LAYERS_ALL_SRC], choosing By Order wont have an effect cause there is no equivalent in the 'reversed' enum... )

assigning to @mont29, my intution would be to remove reverse logic and have it transfer from active to selected for Transfer Weights as well, but letting mont29 decide...
