The issue is that TemplatePF does its lookup based on a Req... the request.
This makes sense because you may want to look things up based on an incoming
request including the path, the postfix, etc. On the other hand,
findTemplate is called with a path... a List[String] because it's no longer
part of the Req, but being called by something beyond the Req. I tried to
unify the two constructs about a month ago and found use cases in my code
for both constructs... thus they are both in Lift and serve their own
purpose.
