Add same device/block multiple times, with different settings

Unless I'm overlooking some settings, it is currently not possible to add one device to multiple pages with different block-settings.

E.g. I have device 123.
In the CONFIG.js I've created blocks[123] with a specified with, title, w/e settings.
In my column[] config I add 123. So far so good.

But now I want to have the same device included on a different page.
Due to the page layout (e.g. more colums, different column sizes) I need to add device 123 with different size settings.
If you add a device-block multiple times with different settings, the last configured settings are applied.

This is indeed a limitation of current version. It will be improved in a future release.

Second that! I would really (really ;)) like to have the ability to use blocks in multiple columns! In my use case the settings might be the same (ie. width).

If the settings are the same then you just can reuse a block in multiple columns.
You have to use the beta of last night. Update with git pull.
