Block Grid Data Type - Allow more than one block type using the same element type

[tormnator]

As far as I can tell, it is not currently possible to add more than one block type using the same element type. Is there a good reason for that?

In my case I want to add the typical "One Column", "Two Column", "Three Column", etc. block types, but I want them all to reference the same "Column Layout" Element Type. In my case there's no need to have separate sets of Element Types and Partial Views for these. The only differences are in the configuration of the block type itself, particularly the areas configuration.

I'm using Umbraco 11.3.1.
