Hi
Is it possible to create a new type of control in references.xml that contains several controls?
i.e. is this possible?

Code:

<control>
  <type>MyNewControl</type>
    <control>
      <type>button</type>
      ...
    </control>
    <control>
      <type>label</type>
      ...
    </control>
    <control>
      <type>image</type>
      ...
    </control>
</control>

I want to be able to create 5 "MyNewControl" controls on a screen, but I'm trying to avoid copying and pasting the xml 5 times.

Thanks
