Absolutely agree. Something like a standard template makes perfect sense in a 
word processor, at least if it is not as badly implemented as in Word 
(crashes due to a damaged normal.dot, arrrgh). In a DTP app this makes no 
sense at all, since it's quite likely that each document has very different 
requirements.
