Ran into another thing in Rails that I don't see a way to do in Merb.
Would love some guidance on how to yield in partials, or some other
mechanism to turn a partial into a layout.

I often use yield in partials so I can build that partial as a wrapper
around some content that I specify in a block.

For example:

-# In Rails...
- render :layout => "shared/collapse_box" do
  = "wrapped partial content here"

Kind of clunky, which is one reason I built the "better partials"
plugin http://github.com/jcnetdev/better_partials plugin in order to
get around this.

-# In Rails...
- partial "shared/collapse_box" do
  = "wrapped partial content here"

All this does is checks if a block is given. If so it converts to
the :layout option.

Anyways, I'd really like this functionality somehow in Merb.

Now I was able to *almost* get it working using Yehuda's excellent
render :layout trick, and just using the standard content catching and
throwing for layouts. Now the problem here is that :layout will always
force me into the layout/ folder for my templates.

Is there any way to run render content, :layout => "xxx" without the
assumption that we are going into the layout folder? Or is there
another helper I should look at to render my partials with content
blocks?

Thanks
