Unlike layer effects, if you change the layer (other than moving it) you need to delete the effects layers and re-apply them. But it is a handy time-saver.

I thought this layer effect plugin didn't do a great job with the bevel/emboss, so I wrote my own over the weekend. After all the sweat and blood, I discovered this was already done, using the exact same method I though of!!!!
It is also available as a python plugin, which I would recommend as it provides a preview button, and is a bit faster.
Oh yeah. Link is here:
