I'm trying to use `Layout`  for the first time I've set myself to build a fairly straight forward widget, but with a small circular dependency

2 components (the name is to help imagining but they can be whatever):
• field
• button
the `button` can decide its own width but must match `field` height
the `field` can decide its own height but must leave room for the `button` in it's width (`maxWidth - button.width`)

the idea is the component will show the field and the button side by side filling width and wrapping height using the field.

As far as I understood I can measure all components only once.
If I measure `field` first I can adjust `button` width accordingly but I cannot make its height match `field`
If I measure `button` first I can know it's width but I cannot tell it to take as much height as the `field`

Can someone enlighten me on how to overcome a situation like this with Layout? thanks

Smells like a use case for intrinsics. Might not even need a custom layout.
