I am not sure how widely it is used. Actually, the line between an example and a template is sometimes blurry, there are documents that are suited for both. OTHOH, I would see examles as a part of the documentation - maybe instead of File>Open [Examples], they should be sorted under Help>Examples. * Under Linux, the local templates are in ~/.lyx/templates I have set this as my templates path in Tools>Settings and in this dir a symlink to the standard templates.
