It's a known and difficult issue that not all layouts can be nested within
others.
As described here, decorated layouts must not be used as the inner layout:
http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-SubLayouts.html#3
Instead, use
http://xmonad.org/xmonad-docs/xmonad-contrib/XMonad-Layout-SubLayouts.html#v%3As
ubTabbed
(or it's pieces) with a more pure layout, if you want decorations.
I believe that this can be type-system enforced by choosing a different type
for the
inner layout to manage (ex. Int) which is just as Combo does (currently it is
Window), but I guess that isn't a substitute for a larger disclaimer (since the
errors would suggest to write the missing instance).

I want to make sure these are the same issues.
In my case the tabbed layout *does* display properly. The accordion layout is
blank/empty//no_window.
This is using the subLayout modifier, even when not having created any
subLayouts yet.
