That is now what I meant. You can bytecode with any layout. You cannot
bytecode if the layout filename is stored in a variable instead of a
contact because the layout is unknown until runtime.

for example {{extend 'mylayout.html'}} you can bytecode

{{extend x}} you cannot bytecode compile because x is undefined at
compile time.
