With this approach, we'll create common API provided by Mistral to

network_config into the input json format, so GUI can display current
configuration to the user and let him change that.
Oh, that reminds me: there were some things that I needed to store for
GUI use that aren't represented in the output templates. That's why my
tool writes out a pickle file that contains the intermediate data
format, and when it loads a set of templates it actually reads that
pickle file, not the templates themselves.
I don't recall all of the bits, but at a glance I see that I had stored
values for auto_routes, ipv6, and version. You can probably ignore
version since you'll only ever need to support version 2, and it's
possible you could derive the other two values based on the values in
the templates. It would require some fuzzy logic though, I think.
I believe there was also some one-way transformation done on the data
when converting the JSON data to templates. I'm not sure whether that
could be reversed from just the templates. It would certainly be more
complex to do it that way.
Just something to keep in mind. Especially because these templates will
mostly never be seen by end-users since they'll go straight into the
plan, it may be much simpler to store intermediate data alongside the
templates and use that for populating the GUI.
