Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Bundle Template Providers with Apps as a best practice

Currently we can specify a list of spaces where the template is available. So you can put FAQ or Blog, but you have to go to those spaces to be able to have the template provider listed when you create a new page. So you won't be able to create a blog post from the Main space. I'm not sure if there are real use cases for this, but being able to fix the space where the page is created as Vincent suggested is better.

I'm proposing to add one more bullet point which is to add a template provider.
