While building the 12 templates as an extension, a question came to my mind,
where in the current state you are able to include other static templates
through their "uid" in the database (with the include_static.txt file), however
I could not find a way to include other static templates through their name.

To better explain myself, I do not find a way for an template extension (similar
to tmpl_green for example) to reference another template extension, in the same
way you do that in the Typo3 interface for templates, section "Include static
(from extensions)"

Could we have a mechanism, with a file include_static_fromext.txt for example,
where this would be made possible ?

Cheers,
Stephane

P.S. I still have not received a view on whether my defaultstatic_tmpl matches
what you mentioned as "I'm currently planning to move the current 11 standard
templates into a new extension"
