You can put templates anywhere they are convenient for you. When you
Add a new HTML Web Site via preferences, you select the folder which
contains the templates you want to use for that site and those
templates become available to you in what you have accurately surmised
is the New Document dialog.

If you only use site-specific templates, you may prefer to keep those
templates in that site's folder. But if you plan to use a single
template for many sites, then a central location such as the HTML
Templates folder is your best bet.

And if any site will be using a mix of site-specific templates and
common templates, then you probably want to store all of these in HTML
Templates as I do not believe there is a convenient method to access
templates in more than one folder at a time. If the template filenames
are well-chosen, you'll be able to easily locate them in the New
Document dialog.
