Terry, what's the status of the free_layout plugin?

I'm having trouble loading the free_layout plugin. There are problems importing nested_splitter.py. Some suggestions: 1. Please don't use @shadow when sharing code. It causes all sorts of problems. 2. Please put @file nested_spliiter.py in leoPlugins.leo. 3. Please use fully qualified imports
