I don't know if it quite really fits this use case, but if you aren't familar with the panels module, you might give it a look. I use it to drop blocks on specific pages more often than I use theme regions.

Hi,
Its interesting how drupal use cases stumps you even after years. I was wondering how would one place the same block (lets say user login block) in different regions on different pages (block visibility) in the same theme of course. This question just popped without any req for client work, so there is no urgency but yeah it would be great to know solutions to this use case. I found http://drupal.org/project/multiblock which allows you to create multiple instances, I dont know the internals so dont know how efficient it is, though usage statistics are pretty good for this module.
Does anyone know of other approaches?
Cheers Dipen
