Thats really cool; I welcome any and all efforts that will make kexi feel 
more like a part of the family

Why would it not fit in the template dialog? You would benefit from the 
extensive work many people did on that dialog to make it the best 
usability wise and technically.
I fail to see how kexi functionality can not be modified to fit with the 
template idea making it really integrate.
The way kexi now handles opening or creating is certainly in need of 
improvement; too many dialogs and steps making the user feel lost.

I suggest you work in that direction, and I suggest you talk to the people 
from openusability who are experts in knowing what will have the best 
impression.
