I was wondering whether it is the case to group the instructions inside MediaContainment::doLayout inside internal specific QGraphicsWidget or, at least, inside internal functions in order to avoid cluttering of the code. That is, a function to layout properly according to each Mode. Hope I am clear.

The containment then relayouts the other applets and configures them for the current Mode. These modes are defined as enum in the libs.
