Bug Description

I'd like to launch a specific layout into a new tab while an instance of terminator is already running.

If I specify both options, like "terminator --new-tab -lmylayout" a new tab is opened on the running window but no layout is loaded.

Changed in terminator:

Hi, this is very unlikely to be implemented. A layout is a self contained set which can contain multiple windows and/or tabs. How would these be handled under a single tab? I can't think of a sane way of adding this without having loads of code to handle corner cases and issues. (one example: If I load the same layout of *simple* items twice, you would now have to handle the situation of multiple terminals in the same instance with the same saved uuid.)
