From what I see, scripts tend to manually specify the locations and sizes of whatever they have in their paint.

If there was an option to create paints using components and layouts, how many people would use that system?

I know some people aren't familiar with layouts, but I feel the option to create and use layouts would be pretty neat.

Not sure if this is the right section; please let me know if it's not and which section is best for things like this.

there already is a tool for this, enfilades easel

_{I think he's referring to something different to enfilade's easel, which is garbage anyway :P}

_{If you're referring to having something similar to Swing's layout as a part of paints, then sign me up!}
