It would be interesting if it were possible to place widgets / plasmoids over several rows (or columns) on the horizontal (vertical) panels. For example by giving a "container widgets" in which it is possible to insert widgets and set the policy of positioning.

Are you thinking along the lines of this:

If so, there is already an applet being developed in playground by Sebastian Kügler to place plasmoids in a grid:

See also his short description of what it does from the plasma mailing list:
