Ok. It's working and it IS a pattern similar to JavaBeans based on name,
screen vs. layout.

The problem was that I had the "Administration.vm" screen in a subdirectory
of the "screens" directory. Once I pulled it out into the "flat" screens
directory it pulls the layout "with the same name" correctly.

That's great default behavior.

Jason, what section of code should I look at to think about making choice of
layout a little more explicit?
