Another quick observation.

Would it also make sense for a Admin::UsersController to first look
for a layouts/admin/application.rhtml file first before looking for
the layouts/admin/users.rhtml file?

This would allow one to easily create different layouts for the
different sub-sections of an application without having to specify the
layout in the controller or creating a seperate layout file for every
controller in their "admin" section.
