No, you have misunderstood.  We're suggesting something like

.zle.layout=$'\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n etc etc'

and then the spdist function would read the value of that variable.
No new options, no new builtins.

A shell function file similar to (for an example)
Functions/Misc/colors would provide a set of layouts that could be
assigned to the variable.
