And pass it through to GDALDatasetCreateLayer().

Now that I think about it more, name is reserved for the filename/URI given to the constructor. The layer keyword, which already exists, is the thing to rely on.

Yes, layer is certainly what I initially expected to work! Thanks for opening this, looking foward to being able to use it.
