In the above example, the page named "bugtemplate" is registered as a
template to be used when any page named "bugs/*" is created.
-[[template id=note text="""
-Note: It's generally not a good idea to put the `edittemplate` directive in
-the template page itself, since the directive would then be included as
-part of the template on new pages, which would then in turn be registered
-as templates. If multiple pages are registered as templates for a new page,
-an arbitrary one is chosen, so that could get confusing.

Often the template page contains a simple skeleton for a particular type of
page. For the bug report pages in the above example, it might look
something like:
similar to other ikiwiki [[templates]]. Currently only one variable is
set: `<TMPL_VAR name>` is replaced with the name of the page being
created.
