Description

When designing pages with Wt, one of the more useful widgets is WTemplate.
This allows developers to define a certain DOM structure, and bind widgets to it. This ensures the layout is always as expected, and theming can be done easily.

Creating designs with templates can be a little cumbersome, as they will require a working WApplication, and a reload (if they are stored in WMessageResourceBundles).
Updates to them often fall more in the field of a developer, rather then end-users. In some cases this may be less optimal (think of a CMS).

We should ensure that both developers, and end-users (if enabled by developers) have a way to manage content of WTemplates. The content should be editable in a WTextEdit, and shown in the resulting template.
