Maybe that's less onerous than a simple delete.

The result is the same as Ctrl+A and then pressing the Delete key or clicking on the Delete icon or whatever other ways there may be to delete: everything except one of the title page graphics (the one anchored to the page) is gone. (Aside: I had failed to notice earlier that the OpenOffice.org 3 graphic got wiped when one uses Ctrl+A to select, so that's yet another reason to not use Ctrl+A when starting a new chapter for the user guides.)

After all, that's what Ctrl+A is supposed to do: select everything! But we don't want to delete everything, just the explanatory text in the body of the template.

The exception would be if someone wanted to use the template to start a completely different document (not a user guide chapter) with all new boilerplate and everything, just with all the styles intact.
