Description
In older versions of JOSM one could select three or more data layers and merge them into one layer.
With up-to-date versions this is no longer possible.
E.g. when I select the layers 14, 13, 12 and 11, press ctrl-m, select layer 11 as destination and execute, the layers 13, 12 and 11 remain.
Experienced with r8788 and earlier versions.
A guess: Maybe this issue was introduced when the really useful gamma adjust function was added?

Thanks for the speedy reaction, but in r8791 I still can only merge two data layers.
Tested with empty ~/.josm on Linux
openjdk version "1.8.0_72"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_72-b00)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.72-b00, mixed mode

It works for me: Create 5 new data layers (5×[CTRL]+[N]). Select them all in the layer list. Right click. Merge.

Works for me too with jdk 8u60. Where do you get your 8u72 build from? It is not expected until January.

At the moment I am running Void Linux. The Java version I use is the default 1.8 available in the repository.

When using Hotkey CTRL-M or the menu
still only merging two layers of seven on a
32bit Debian Sid with
java version "1.7.0_79"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.6) (7u79-2.5.6-1)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 24.79-b02, mixed mode)
Merging by the newly introduced context menu entry works for all layers…

ok, the shortcut does not trigger the same action.
@Simon: Maybe we should get rid of LayerListDialog.MergeAction and move the whole logic to MergeLayerAction.

Ah, this operation is also placed in the Edit menu.
Since the behaviour of this operation hasn't been changed and has never supported merging multiple layers, I would keep additional adaptions for the next release. Therefore, I created #11897.
Personally, I would vote for removing the merge operation from the Edit menu. Analogously, neither duplicating nor deleting layers is placed in the Edit menu.

Strange enough (and as I mentioned in the OP) merging multiple layers did work. Right now tested with r8701. :)
In 8789/josm:
