To be decided... but I'd imagine that if and when SXCE ceases to  
exist, we'd at least want to provide a way for a user to switch  
between the one- and two-panel layouts.  (Or more likely, initially at  
least, completely reset their panel to one of those two default  
layouts -- trying to also preserve any panel customisations they might  
have done in the meantime would be rather hard to do well.)

This is certainly something we've talked about doing before, as we  
know the one-panel layout is pretty much just as popular as the two- 
panel layout.  But we haven't got as far as putting any actual  
development hours into it so far.

Cheeri,
Calum.
