While it does look nicer, and has the benefit of expanding the second-level
view, the templates themselves are still expected to follow the pattern of
"Category / ProjectType / Language". On my system (KDE 4.9), they all do,
but some of yours (probably from an old KAppTemplate version) have the
language as the top-level category.
