When selecting "New from Template..." LyX always starts at the

custom templates they should not be put into the library directory.
But then one would have to always manually navigate to the template
directory. So, LyX should remember the directory where the last
template was opened from to make it easier to use one's own templates.
Alternatively, LyX should place all templates in the user directory
and always start from there, so that the user can add a template there.

Following advice from someone on the list (I think), I went to Tools >
Preferences... > Paths and changed the template path to the template
folder in the user directory. Now "New from Template" always starts from
there. I added a symlink in the local templates directory to the LyX
templates directory, so if I want a template that came with LyX I can
just use that link to quickly get to the "official" directory.
