Sounds to me like the LayoutManager and GroupManager are performing similar or related functions. Should they be merged into one entity that implements their summed functions?
I don't know the answer myself to those questions I asked, I just wanted to see what you thought is reasonable. Do you think that this is what everyone will want? If not, perhaps make the behavior customizable? In summary, instead of a GroupManager and LayoutManager, I think what would be nice is a LayerManager that implements both and is customizable. --JYL > Hi Jacob > > In what way do you mean react?
