Most moderately complicated GUI layouts will indeed have quite a few 
nested layout items.  As you say, vboxes in table cells, hboxes in 
vboxes.  I have had quite a few nested layouts before and had no 
problems.  Use them.  That's what they are their for.

For what it's worth, even when you have to nest the layouts, having 
explicit layout widgets is so much nicer than QT's weird spring system. 
 Never did get the hang of that.
