If by Friday 15 December:
+ Dmitry can fix all the bugs I mentioned to him, and do something to
   provide theBat! help instructions
+ and Ingo and Till have no further objections
+ and Jonathan has nothing else to add for now

then I think we should go ahead and include the new templates
features into the KDE 3.5.6 release.

I would feel better if I heard an opinion back from Dmitry, Jonathan,
and Mikolaj (who has provided a lot of feedback on this feature).
