Thanks, Chris. Here's another crucial tidbit I discovered:

If you need to create the Stationery folder, BBEdit will not recognize any 
files you put there until you *quit and re-launch BBEdit!*


I was expecting files I saved there to be recognized immediately, as 
scripts, clippings and text filters are, but apparently that only happens 
because those folders already exist. But the weird thing that kept me from 
recognizing this sooner is that, while BBEdit won't recognize the *files* you 
place in the Stationery folder, *it does recognize the folder!* As soon as 
you create ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Stationery/, the File > New 
with Stationery submenu becomes available, and Open Stationery Folder menu 
option appears, and it works, but no files are displayed until you restart 
BBEdit.
