Aha, so its not about the functionality of templates, but about managing them.

As I already added groups and all that, all that is needed is a way to
* add a new group
* add a titlebar to the group
* allow the user to resize the group

Notice that when adding functionality like the 'Create Group' that I want to 
allow the user to change the zoom level.
Much like what you already see in Plasma.  (this is an example where great 
minds think alike ;).  The idea here is that a user might want to place a 
text document on the shapeSelector and zooming in would make the text 
actually readable.
This, naturally, next to the concept of a spatial desktop.

Anyway, the point is that I guess we need to show some buttons for the user to 
find and select.  Maybe we can steal the idea of a 'hotspot' like plasma has 
for showing buttons.  If only for consistency.
