Comment 24 for bug 372132

we discussed the topic on IRC again yesterday, some notes:

 * where to ship the templates?
- in each application? in which case you can easily have duplicate office templates for openoffice and abiword for example
- in a template package? it's easy to install but lack granularity, what to do if the corresponding application is not installed?
- in a extra binary for each application, texteditor-template?

* in what directory to install those? using a cross desktop one or a GNOME specific dir? some people use non GNOME applications on GNOME

* do we need a way for users to mask system templates they are not using? how do we do that? do we need a template editor?
