Opt out a nested layout from parent layout

Goals

1. Opt out a specific nested layout from parent layout without using conditional rendering in parent layout.

Background

Next.js app directory sometimes make the structure of project deeply nested and each child need own layout file.
But because of sharing layouts between parent and children, sometimes it's make serious conflicts between them.
Also, because of having correct hierarchy route, it's not meaningful to change the structure of the project.

👉 I know there are some solutions like conditional rendering in parent layouts based on path of route to extract parent layout and resolve conflict between them, but I think there should be better solution for this. Because sometimes extracting more than one route from parent layout make the code so dirty.

Proposal

I think setting a specific variable for nested layout to make it isolated from parent layouts be a good solution.

I'm struggling with this as well, i just want to replace a deeply nested routes layout without completely dismantling my folder structure and duplicating layouts for every other sub-tree.
