  nice! I can play with it with some guidance to test it in order to support it both for 0.7 and master Latte versions if this is possible.
  the layout file is just a text file that ends with **.layout.latte** .
  Inside it looks like just like a plasma's appletsrc file with some extra configgroups that Latte needs.
  The name of the file is also used as a layout name, e.g. **Plasma.layout.latte** means a Latte layout named **Plasma** .
  
  If you want to take a look of one layout file a small example is: F5543871: Plasma.layout.latte <https://phabricator.kde.org/F5543871>
  
  Theoretically it should be also possible to download/install from store.kde.org any applets that can be found inside the **layout.latte** file
  and cant be found in the user's environment.
  Just like plasma is doing, I think.
