Ah, now I see your point. That would indeed not be possible with what I
have suggested so far.

I was (again) thinking in terms of the static pages plugin. There you
have the option to have the static page on a blank page, a page with only
header & footer, a page with header, footer & left blocks or on a page
with header, footer, left & right blocks. Hence the idea to leave all
that under the control of the plugin.

Would it really become that complex?

I tried to think of a way to control the center block from Geeklog's
Block Admin menu (so that you had a central place to control them all),
but it didn't work out for a number of details ...
