No, I still disagree. We already have 2 ways to describe panels: as a
child node of its controller or with of-graph. We don't need a 3rd way
even if it is simple. The problem with of-graph today is too much of
the parsing is left to the individual drivers. We need to fix that and
make it be handled by common code.
