Hi guys,

The template layout is bound to the current application. This makes it useful only if you change applications. In the following example switching layouts will work:

# ==== File A.pm ====

package A;

use Dancer ':syntax';

layout 'main';

get '/' => sub { template 'index' };

load_app 'A::B';

true;

# ==== File A/B.pm ====

package A::B;

use Dancer ':syntax';

layout 'users';

get '/users' => sub { template 'users_index' };

true;

The following is an example where switching layouts will NOT work:

# ==== File C.pm ====

package C;

use Dancer ':syntax';

layout 'main';

get '/' => sub { template 'index' };

layout 'users';

get '/users' => sub { template 'users_index' };

true;

In the above situation the layout won't get changed.

I think the layout setting should be bound to each route. When a new route registers it should know what layout was selected last. I think it will make more sense this way.
