Well, I still don't see the need for this patch because we have no use
for it *after* the introduction of layouts. Yes in some cases changing
the size of a cell might maybe be needed, but right now the use case is
to provide a MAC address, we know beforehand the size of the cell, so
there is no need, currently, for this hack.

Whatever. If you want it, just merge it. But *please*, I would like
to see these layouts in, so what's the plan?

Thanks,
Miquèl
