In a typical iTX system, the system-administrator layout view should give access to all the main
global layouts for system configuration, operation, monitoring and diagnostics.
Any workstation or user view should contain just the layouts a particular operator needs; e.g.
for scheduling (Channel Control and Multi-Channel) or media preparation (Asset and Manual
Ingest).
