--- Comment #2 from Maxim Monastirsky <momonasmon at gmail.com> ---
The purpose of this command is to allow editing templates, which aren't listed
in the template manager. That's why it shows the file open dialog. See Bug
61396 where it was added to the menu.

Only that its title is confusing: "Open Template" sounds like:
1. It's going to show a list of templates to choose from.
2. After selecting a template, a new document will be created, based on the
selected template.

Both are wrong. It shows the file open dialog to allow selecting the template
from an arbitrary place, and it open the template itself for editing, not a new
document based on the template.
