I am new to panels and display suite both and trying to figure my way around those modules.

In "Display Suite" with "Display Suite Forms" you get an extensive list of all entities and bundles and can override any of the create/edit form layout.

In "Page Manager" I see only 'node''node add form', 'node edit form' and 'user''user edit form' context out of the box. Is there a way to generalize it and use "Panels" functionality with other entities on the site like Display Suite does it? I mean, without writing code.

What I want is to take existing entity, say 'commerce_customer_profile' and automatically have its 'X edit form' and 'X add form' contexts available in Panels. Or something equivalent.
