Hi!
While playing around with the layout designer I could get Tabs to work! Thanks to Address Book example!
But, I find that a possibility to copy and paste layouts are needed.
Example: You design a layout. Now you want another layout to be the same size with the same controls in it, but making a few changes. Instead of redesigning the second layout, you could just copy and paste the other layout, give this new copy a name and edit it.
Please think about it!

You just now can copy and past!
Select with a mouse a rectangular area (click and drag) then copy. Now create a new layout and paste in it.
Alternatively you can use CTRL+T and visualize the textual part of the layout. Copy it and paste somewhere renaming the widget layout name.
