           Summary: FILEOPEN: [Template Manager]Editing a model
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: pierre-yves.sa...@laposte.net
          Hardware: Other
        Whiteboard: BSA
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

         Component: UI
           Product: LibreOffice

Hello

The new template manager does not allow you to edit a model not listed in the
directory models (you need to import first).

It has the advantage of being "structuring" and encouraging good uses.

The downside is that the "File> Save" command allowed (and still allows) to
save where you want as "Template" (select the .ott type for example) and it
becomes impossible to edit these documents.

My suggestion would be to change the File> Open> Type: Model xxx ODF for it
opens the template.

In other words:
1. File> Open> Select a .ot(tsg...) file creates a new document (current
behavior)
2. File> Open> Select a .ot(tsg...) file then  select type: "ODF model xxx"
edits the model.

This would be consistent with what is done for File> Save.
It does not add menu entry.
It does not change the template manager
It provides a utility to File> Open> Type: Model, currently overlap with File>
Open
This allows to "recover" functionality lost with the new manager.
