Word/docx templates? #257

Are there any docx templates for vitae? Web searches turn up MS Office templates, and I'm not sufficiently familiar with pandoc's templating system to roll my own.

Context: For our biannual reviews, my university requires CVs to be numbered, and for these numbers to match the only-somewhat-chronological numbering generated by the (required and deeply obnoxious) "bio-bib" system. It is by far easiest to reconcile the numbers with a CV in Word/docx format.

I have a kludge: vitae::markdowncv produces html that pandoc will turn into a functional docx. But this has some weird behavior, like the numbers end up on their own lines. (See index.docx)

Not currently, although I would be happy to accept PRs from contributors familiar with creating pandoc templates for this.
