I wonder in which ways it is superior to the template_root that was  
there before?
It does not properly work with inheritance (you need the same  
workarounds as with before_ and after_filter,
because managing an inherited array is nasty), it is classlevel, it  
does not couple to ActionMailer, it does not solve the problems
in ActionView. Basically the only thing it _does_ permit is making a  
kind-of-working overlay stack for template lookups (purposedly for
plugins as I've read on the changesets), once per class definition in  
the code. For the rest of us it makes life much more difficult.

Seems like I'm the minority on the issue anyway. I would love to know  
what do the Engines folks
and John Long think about it (John especially because he made the  
patch in the first place).
