Hi,
I have two questions :
* Why not just XWiki.TemplateClass ?
* Why habing a metadata that indicate which template to use ? Shouldn't
the document that hosts a Template(Privder)Class be itself the said
template, and that's it ? (= remove the "template to use" field)
The problem would be to remove the template object after the copy, so
that not all instances become templates as well. This custom cleanup
would require more changes to the core.
