hi roelf,

i'm going to re-forward this to the dbconfig mailing list, for the sake of 
posterity.

okay, good to know that works.  for the record i don't promise that i won't 
move around template names/locations/usage (i.e. i don't consider it part of 
the "exported api").  however, i won't go out of my way to break it, and even 
if i *do* change this, it should still be possible to use the same 
technique/concept.

also, given that this is for a private (i.e. non debian main archive) 
package/system, i think that makes perfect sense.
