I can't tell if it does what I want, or would need some serious modification...

someone could make an extension that lets the user choose one of the available mw templates and then generates a form with one field to each of the template variables. And then, the article would be created with the selected template and parameters as the initial content.
There's something similar, but not quite as described; see the Preloader extension. You can provide the name of a page used as pre-filled text for each namespace, so when creating a new page in the main namespace, for instance, the contents of a page can be inserted into the edit form and hacked about.
This doesn't, at present
- allow selecting between different templates, though it might be
feasible to add
- provide nice little forms, although that could also be arranged, perhaps
