Description

Since the be_layout uses typoscript for storeing the configuration only inside the layout field its not possible to handle the layout in an version controll system.
With only one line changed it would be possible to achive in the layout field something like this:

<INCLUDE_TYPOSCRIPT:source="FILE:fileadmin/layout.ts">

All that needs to be done is change typo3/sysext/cms/classes/class.tx_cms_backendlayout.php with the following:

~~$parser~~>parse($backendLayout['config']);
+$parser->parse($parser->checkIncludeLines($backendLayout['config']));

Now it would be possible to load external layout script files. There is no need to store changes back there because changes in typoscript templates are stored in the setup or constants field too.

Change for 6.0+ to make it work ("basic version"): Make above change but to PageLayoutView.php
~~$parser~~>parse($backendLayoutRecord['config']);
+$parser->parse($parser->checkIncludeLines($backendLayoutRecord['config']));

(Tested and works for me.)

And since that helps for certain special use-cases already, we should imho for now maybe add it but not yet "advertise" it. Since the full resolution misses the following additional points (when editing a backend-layout record:)

Have a checkbox to "Include TypoScript file content" (as for example in Template > Setup)
If set then include that content and save it to external files again when saving (for brief examples how to do that see TypoScriptTemplateInformationModuleFunctionController.php, processTemplateRowAfterLoading() and processTemplateRowBeforeSaving())
Make the layout-wizard work somehow. (I guess that thing will strip the include-markers upon save.)
