	\class BTwoDimensionalLayout
	\ingroup layout
	\ingroup libbe
	\brief Abstract BLayout subclass arranging items within rows and columns.

	This class manages all the tricky work of actually positioning/resizing
	items, as well as calculating size constraints and providing extra features,
	such as spacing/insets and alignment of multiple
	BTwoDimensionalLayout's. Derived classes need only implement a few hook
	methods to get a working layout.

	\warning This class is not yet finalized, if you use it in your software
	assume that it will break some time in the future.

	When two (or more) BTwoDimensionalLayout's are aligned within a
	certain \a orientation, then the BLayoutItem's within those
	BTwoDimensionalLayout's will have identical widths or heights
	(depending on how the BTwoDimensionalLayout's are aligned.)

	If you align two BGroupLayout's horizontally for example, then the
	BLayoutItem at index 0 in both BGroupLayout's will be given the same
	horizontal area. The same is true for the BLayoutItem at index 1,
	2, etc. Not all BTwoDimensionalLayout's have to have an item at each
	index for the alignment to proceed.

	\param other The BTwoDimensionalLayout to be aligned with.
	\param orientation The \a orientation on which to be aligned.
