All templates have been submitted by users replying to such contests we run
back in v5.3f. Mostly Impress, of course.

LibreOffice does this all-in-one by design. And in the start center you can
start all modules.

We discussed the start center in detail and decided to not have file browser
features there. It makes also not much sense to limit the templates as Impress
provides a format switch.

That's what the extensions site is meant for.


Putting all together => WF.
