Daniel Dekany commented on FREEMARKER-74:
-----------------------------------------
The problem with {{String name}}, if anything, used to be that people don't
expect that hey can specify a path (the subdirectory) there as well. But
"description" doesn't sound good to me. It as if it's some longer text. Anyway,
whatever would be the ideal name, it's unlikely that we change it after 14
years, because that's how lot of material refers to it (i.e., then name of the
template).

> # add java doc to all Constructors
> # change 'String name' to 'String templateDescription'
> # provide a Constructor where the 'templateSourceString' can be passed in
> directly
> ad 3) I have a use case where I have already have the template source at hand
> and all the file io is handled elsewhere - so I may even get along without
> cfg (insofar as it deals with file io)
