Keys may not be set in a layer on a retargeted limb. Grrrr...

I've a set of Biped animations (cleaned up Mocap data) from an outside contractor, that I need to manipulate due to some design changes. The trouble is, that on some of them, the contractor retargeted the hands to the Bip Head and one can't set a key, in a layer, on a retargeted limb. Like all Mocap, there are keys everywhere and I just need to exaggerate some of the arcs so I'm adding a Layer, making tweaks and then collapsing. How do I reset the IK of biped hands so that I can manipulate their arcs with Biped's Layer features? In my layer panel, the "Retarget Right/Left Arm" icon(s) is unavailable, so maybe going back is impossible, but I'm thinking there's got to be at least, a work-around for this. Thoughts?

Thank you Will!

The fix is most simple:
In the "Key Info" panel, expand the IK set, and then click on the "Select IK Object" arrow icon, just like you would if you wanted to retarget the hand to another object. Then just click on an empty area of the viewport. This removes the offending IK target and allows keys to be set in Layers.
