Allow fast-switching of Layout by right-click on avatar (Like Google Profile switching)

We've built layout templates that have series of Dashboards that represent 'business interventions', switching between them takes 4 clicks then you need to type to locate the layout template you want (and you need to know the name of it!) then 2 more clicks. With the capability to 'put on a layout template and expose a series of contextual dashboards for specific interventions', then needing to switch back-and-forth between LTs, the 4 clicks-type-2clicks is becoming tedious - we thought it would be COOL if we could just right-click on the Avatar and beside 'My Settings' was a list of Layout Templates that are available to the viewer, allowing for a more fluid transition between the two.

As someone that supports multiple teams all with different layout templates, this would be an amazing feature. It would be useful for regular users too, so they can switch layouts based on what they are doing in the system.

An update on this idea :


What if the layout you were currently using was displayed just under your profile name?


This was you can easily see what the layout is without having to 'guess/know' based on the tabs in your pinned nav bar. In addition, you could then click on the layout name and this would bring up the other layouts available to you to switch to. One more click to select that layout would initiate the switch + Auto-refresh so that your new layout tabs are visible almost instantly.


This would really unleash the power of Workfront's excellent Layouts and Dashboards capability, enabling greater agility and support adoption.
