How to customize get_text()

[LuchiLucs]

Assuming I'm working with Layout elements from the root node Document:
layouts = doc.layouts
Example 1) I slice some layouts and get their text:
filtered_layouts = [l.get_text() for l in layouts if l.page == 2 and l.layout_type = "LAYOUT_TEXT"]
Example 2) getting the text of page two direcly (assuming the page layouts are all "LAYOUT_TEXT"):

page_two = doc.pages[1]
page_two.to_text()

My goal is to be able to tweak at a Layout-level grain in order to implement my logic and than be able to recostruct the original formatting of the slice of layouts. How can I do this?
