This is probably a good thing to do. For example, there are also templates at
documentation.openoffice.org, like an Org Chart, an Excellence Award, etc.
There are also quite a few at ooextras. A select # should probably get added to
the base package since they don't really take up much space, perhaps another
500k or so for a few.
