Yes, that's the plan.
Thanks for the info.

I did this:

copy them from there (e. g. /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/templates)
to ~/Library/Application Support/LyX/templates

Of course, that is not very user friendly. In particular now that Apple has
decided to hide Library. Would it be possible to run some
kind of installation script that does this automatically?

Fine.

I'm just curious... what did you do?

(I want to improve the out-of-the-box behavior.)

They are located inside the software package. The current state
is to either copy them from there (e. g. 
/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/templates)
to ~/Library/Application Support/LyX/templates

Another option is to modify the path in preferences and set it to
${LyXDir}/Resources/templates (${LyXDir} will be replaced by the correct value).
