You mean the extension template should look like below?

### Extension template - start

# New template file
temp.mainTemplate.template.file = fileadmin/templates/newfile.htm

# Copying the content from TEMPLATE for <body>-section:
#page.10 < temp.mainTemplate

### Extension template - end

Without "page.10 < temp.mainTemplate" (so, only with 
"temp.mainTemplate.template.file = fileadmin/templates/newfile.htm"), it 
doesn't work - the template.file from the original, main template is used.
