I think that what they have going there should be sufficient. I can see the point behind your idea, but I think a layout tag would be going in the wrong direction, because it would then be putting emphasis on the presentation, instead of the content. The tags that I mentioned help define what the content is (not where or what it looks like), and through CSS the presentation and positioning of those elements will be regulated.

So, considering that the statement above is true, why not a LAYOUT tag? And, inside them, a REGION TAG? You know, like Java, ExtJS Layout or PrototypeJS Simple Layout Manager. It would be something like this: <!-- Markup (logo, search) --> <!-- Markup (menu, ads) --> <!-- Markup (article) --> I think it would be pretty useful...
