I'd like to figure out the correct way to reuse or "alias" layouts.  

It seems that the [Android documentation about layout aliases][1] is incorrect, and certainly appears inconsistent.  This section of documentation shows the following layout file as an example:

    <resources>
        <item name="main" type="layout">@layout/main_twopanes</item>
    </resources>

If I try to compile this, I get an `Attribute is missing the Android namespace prefix` error.  Even after adding the namespace to the `resources` element, I get `error: Error: String types not allowed (at 'type' with value 'layout').`

[Elsewhere in the Android documentation][2], they show a different and seemingly inverted and incorrect way to alias layouts:

Lastly there's the [`<merge>` documentation][3], which seems to contradict the former direction
