And preferably add an option to turn it on by default in the Preferences

Amen, especially in table cells - manually resizing text to fit in a cell in a large table can be a nightmare

Same, although I used it for packaging files - I now have to search in the File menu for it!

Why is it still in the backlog, despite being so simple, and so requested? Have you forgotten this feature or something? Or are more amazing sounding features with "AI" in the name higher priority because it drives interest?

Thanks for raising this feature ask. We are reviewing this

Surely this isn't hard to implement, and it would make formatting tables a lot easier!

To identify the cause of this issue, we started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received an email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.
We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the following: Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.
We recommend you upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2025(v20.0.0.095) as it is more robust and contains a lot of bug fixes.
We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.

InDesign's index feature has the option, when generating the index, to include entries from all other documents in the same book. That's what's really needed here - a similar checkbox in the layers panel that shows all layer groups in the book, with changes applying across all documents.
In the meantime, the below script might help, I wrote it with ChatGPT (and having tested it, can confirm it works):
var book = app.activeBook;
var bookDocs = book.bookContents;
var layerToKeepVisible = "LayerName"; // Change this to the layer you want to remain visible
for (var i = 0; i < bookDocs.length; i++) {
var docPath = bookDocs[i].fullName;
var doc = app.open(File(docPath));
try {
var layers = doc.layers;
for (var j = 0; j < layers.length; j++) {
var layer = layers[j];
var wasLocked = layer.locked; // Store original locked state
layer.locked = false; // Unlock it to change visibility
if (layer.name != layerToKeepVisible) {
layer.visible = false;
} else {
layer.visible = true;
}
layer.locked = wasLocked; // Restore original locked state
}
} catch (e) {
alert("Error in document: " + doc.name + "\n" + e.message);
}
doc.save();
doc.close(SaveOptions.YES);
}
alert("All layers except '" + layerToKeepVisible + "' have been hidden in all book documents, including locked layers.");
