I've added such a feature to my variant of the rtp_smarty extension.


You can set a additional template path via TS for your extension.
plugin.tx_myext.smarty.templatePath = fileadmin/myext-templates


If a requested template file is not found there, the smarty extension
will try to find the file within the template path of the extension
itself, i.e. EXT:myext/templates


If the extension does not ship the templates it uses. ...Well this is a
 problem that can not be solved by the smarty extension. ;)


What I did not saw is the need for more than one additional template
path, but this feature more can be added if nessesary.
