I am happy to read this opinion and I do fully agree on this. This makes it possible to use templates for any purpose desired. I already had thought of some template enrichments which work with CSS.
Now that there is template parsing software in Java, I am thinking of further developing/implementing it. Next step will be a repository with archetyped controls, like a GUI building developing tool, it even could be an eclipse or visual studio plugin, or write an own development environment, and so enabling a drag and drop development tool for people close to the medical professions. The templates could be the base of a Windows-executable GUI, or Mono, or Java, or PHP, or Javascript/HTML (AJAX), a client application that changes, depending on the template loaded. It is all a matter of just work to do. Maybe I am jumping too many steps in one time, but something like that is my bit further goal.
