Description Tod Creasey

The WorkbenchLayout class is complicated and difficult to maintain. We should 
replace it with a FormLayout which is much easier to maintain.

Version 1.51.6.5 has the layout converted. However it still needs better error 
checking and a fix for Bug 39140

Should also investigate replacing the layout of workbench parts (views, editor 
area, tab folders, etc) with FormLayout.

The current fix cannot be applied until the extra resize in Bug 39337 is 
addressed.

WorkbenchLayout has been replaced by TrimLayout in the new_look stream. This
should be much easier to maintain.
