Yes, there is a better approach which is to use Turbine's internal method of
matching layouts to screen templates. Read the FSD to see how this is done,
I've personally explained this numerous times and I know that John has as
well. In short if you have
templates/
screens/
backoffice/
Index.vm
frontoffice/
Index.vm
layouts/
backoffice/
Default.vm
frontoffice/
Default.vm
Than the backoffice/Default.vm layout will be used with your backoffice
screen templates, and frontoffice/Default.vm layout will be used with your
front office templates. Turbine's template service will match them up for
you.
