[pmwiki-users] Looking for a recipe or configuration for page templates

[Petko Yotov]

We could add it. Would something like this this be convenient:

   $EditTemplatesFmt[] = '{$SiteGroup}.MapsTemplate name=*map,*maps';

This would work like the name= argument in pagelists and other 
directives, and the template Site.MapsTemplate will only be loaded on 
pages that match the specification.
