When working with the video browser app, I ran into mgeisler/video-browser#6. That issue is blocked because zpm expands all UI files as Jinja2 templates.
I suggest that we only expand UI files ending in .tmpl or similar. We would then also rename the files after expanding them. So if zapp.yaml has
ui:
- index.html.tmpl
- somelib.js
then we would run index.html.tmpl through Jinja2 and store the result as index.html in the zapp. We would not modify somelib.js at all, just include it in the zapp.
