Hi Jeff,
Try something like this. In Vendor_App_Base, add a config key
'template_path', and then add that path in _setLayoutTemplate():

    protected function _setLayoutTemplates()
    {
        parent::_setLayoutTemplates();

        // done, add the stack
        $this->_view_object->addTemplatePath($this->_config['template_path']);
    }

Then configure Site1/Site2 to set different paths.

For Site1:

    $config['Vendor_App_Base']['template_path'] =
array('Site1/App/Base/Layout');

For Site2:

    $config['Vendor_App_Base']['template_path'] =
array('Site2/App/Base/Layout');

I'm not sure this exactly will work or if it is the simplest way, but
it can give you a clue on how to get the flexibility you want. :)
