I can't answer that, but I can say that I was opening some templates I had, 
which had nothing to do with HTML (it was actually C source code, processed by 
M4) and it was incorrectly recognized as HTML, which was mildly annoying since 
when I went to type `#include <string.h>` it put `#include 
<string.h></string.h>` :)

As another example, the WebHelper plugin uses the `.tpl` extension on the 
[`gwh-enum-types.*` files] that are processed by the `glib-mkenums` tools.

I think it's just a generic name people use, like `.txt` or `.text` for plain 
text, Markdown, ASCIIDoc, and various other plain-text based markups.

In any case, it's not the end of the world, I can remove it locally, I just 
thought I'd mention it since it annoyed me :)
