Description macias 2014-11-10 20:45:22 UTC
Current template design while being useful does not let fully use it potential -- mainly automatize its usage.

So please add type of template and make template first grade citizen in Claws, meaning template could be executed.

This is for example implemented in KDE 3.5 KMail.

So example:
* I define a template, and define it as a reply
* I execute this template later, and I land directly in composer with this template

Because templates are first grade citizens, I can assign keyboard shortcuts, I can add them on toolbar, etc.

For those who prefer current Claws behavior, it could be pretty well added -- type by default could be "none", and defining this field would not be required.

Later user could only execute those templates where type!=none.
