Hm, dunno. I think that this pretty much sucks for converting configs. It only
really works for a fixed or a flex layout, and even then the old rightleft stuff
doesn't work. The syntax for align also is too different from what is there in
3.4.
However, this might shorten configs a bit. E.g. before:
local l = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal
l:add(a)
l:add(b)
l:add(c)
after:
local l = { layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
a, b, c }
I'm not sure if it's worth merging this just for this minor convenience...
