In my opinion, all templating should be add-ons in BFG. Since we're not constrained to use any particular templating in BFG, we should figure out what we want to use and suck it in as a dependency of our app, rather than BFG. I do think this basic story is a little strange: "You can use widget X with our framework, but you don't have to. Whether you use it or not, though, we'll suck it in as a dependency."
