You can also build a layout by using {{include 'some_fragment.html'}} as
well as template
blocks<http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/05/the-views#Blocks-in-views>.
You could have a basic layout that defines several (possibly empty) blocks,
and then have various additional layouts that extend the basic layout and
fill in the blocks as needed.
