Currently we can specify a list of spaces where the template is
available. So you can put FAQ or Blog, but you have to go to those
spaces to be able to have the template provider listed when you create
a new page. So you won't be able to create a blog post from the Main
space. I'm not sure if there are real use cases for this, but being
able to fix the space where the page is created as Vincent suggested
is better.

Thanks,
Marius
