--- Comment #3 from Markus Glaser <[email protected]> ---
A possible solution might be to treat these templates like messages. Those
which aren't modified localyy, can easily be upgraded and localized like
messages. Those that are modified, keep their local value. 

However, that would mean 
a. extending MediaWiki namespace functionality to Template namespace or 
b. storing these templates in MediaWiki namespace 

b. seems like a bad option. So would it hurt to have "message" functionality in
Template namespace? At first glance, I don't think so. If there is a predefined
template, it will be "magically" present. Otherwise, Template: will just behave
as usual. The only problem might be naming collisions. But we'll find our way
around this.

Having said that, though, I wonder what the implications from caching and
things like rebuilding the localisation cache would be.
