Actually, I have most of the infastructure in place already, and you can 
look forward to seeing templates in the next release. If you have a CVS or 
nightly build, you can do the following:

File->Import

This is a lot like File->Open but it won't save over / overwrite the current 
doc. So there's no need to set anything read-only if you use this, though 
you may want to anyway.

I can try to import this sort of "merge" feature. It shouldn't be all too 
hard.
