Hmm, I do not really see snippets and layouts as content, but they
certainly could be and you could even give them a URL. I mean you
would give a CSS file a URL or images that are embedded in an article.
Why not do the same for layouts and snippets. In fact when using
server-side includes, that is exactly how you include layouts and
snippets, via URLs.

Spotlights? I assume you are not talking about the ones used in stage
performance ;-)
