[Radiant] Re: Layouts, snippets and site assets on the file system?

[Sean Cribbs]

When I designed the extension, I toyed with the idea of providing a way 
for extensions to specify how to dump/load their own models.  IIRC, you 
can just create an appropriately named module and then add the model to 
the constant array in the FileSystem module.  You should probably do all 
of that in your extension file.
