the way it works you would need to have
templates/screens/app
templates/screens/display
templates/layouts/app
templates/layouts/display
then in templates you would references screens as
$link.setPage("app,Foo.vm")
and screens/app/Foo.vm will use layouts/app/Default.vm for layout unless
(maybe) a layouts/app/Foo.vm existed.
