BTW, I think we could remove filetype templates and just use custom
file templates instead - they might confuse users into thinking only
one template per filetype was supported.

When doing this, I think we shouldn't hard code the creation of
default template files, but install them as data files. The advantage
would be the user can delete them after installation if they want.

Not sure when I'll get time to do this, but just wanted to mention it.
