Cool. The only problem I'd have with this is that there's nowhere "behind"
the layout to be. Also, if we're about equi-distant from our layout and the
play area, we may get involuntarily co-opted into some aspect of play area duty.
I think I'd prefer the original horseshoe idea you were working with, backed
against another layout, or a wall or something. It gives us a place to sit,
or put our jackets or lunch, or whatever. It also means we aren't between
crowds and the scenery.
