Not *as* templates, but to modify *existing* templates. They function as
patches for existing HTML structure:

Yes, by invoking authenticationService.getCurrentUsername():
https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client/blob/43f8cc0400266288a70448ad7ddc12b10734c83f/guacamole/src/main/webapp/app/auth/service/authenticationService.js#L317-L335
To do that from within a template that you've patched, you would need to
create an AngularJS directive that handles invoking that function and
rendering the result.
