    I think it would be theoretically possible, but there are some things which I don’t know how to solve, e.g. a folder has an opener, a panel doesn’t or where should a new folder be opened, and in which size?

    A folder an a panel, as containers are exactly the same.


    The difference is how both are displayed. (And yes, they both have an opener: the folder as item, and the panel as item respectively)


    Change a folder into a panel or viceversa will be as easy as


    Remove the folder item, but not the container


    Place a panel item in that place without creating a container


    Set the id of the panel item’s container to the previously folder container



    But I’m sure this is not as easy as it seems.

    That’s an interesting idea. And it may even help in panel layout edition.


    I think this can be done. Actually it is even more simple than it seems.
