Hi Nipuna,

We do not keep layout information separately in dashboard JSON as in the
previous version. Since layouting is handled by the GoldenLayout framework,
we keep the dashboard content and layouting information in the "content"
object of dashboard JSON. Since this is somewhat bound to the GoldenLayout
framework, it is bit difficult to separate the layout information into a
separate file.

Thanks,
Nisala
