What about "Available master pages from other templates" or
"Available from other templates"

Might well happen ;)

Indeed.

Mwah... not convinced yet.

Ah, that is nice. (Still some glitches there..)
> Another option would be to move the "Used in this presentation" panel to the

It's starting to get confusing for me..

The ideas all end in removing to choose from "Available master pages from other
templates", correct?
Now we do have the dialog via "Slide > Slide master design". That has been
subject of discussion before. Not the last because of a nice mixture of
related/(meaning) similar terms.
