[Radiant] nested layouts?

[dror tirosh]

Can you not have the same result simply by having a "body" page_part in the
\, and then not have a "body" page_part in the actual pages. Radiant will
look for the page_part either in the page you are trying to show or in its
parent.

If you need a different "body" for your root, then just create a hidden page
with the "\" slug put your template in the "body" page_part, and create your
pages under tis hidden page.
