More advanced templates than a bare executable/library

What do you have in mind here?

This was an early idea that instead of/besides the hardcoded --bin, --lib project skeletons, a "gallery" with more examples could exist, selected by name with this option. The user could also add their own templates for reuse.

That's related to the #11 issue, so users could create these templates simply by providing files with the templates parser syntax.

Many early issues are somewhat vague ideas I wanted to track, more than definite short/mid-term implementation goals. You may close them as you see fit and they can be reopened if they become a realistic proposition later on.
