Of course not, however, for example, I believe a

for citation templates, so

The bibliography use case is on our minds, but not in our road map. It's beyond
phase 3. So i'm reluctant to spend too much thought on it right now.
However, you can always just wrap another template around
{{#data-template:cite|id={{{id}}}}}, respectively just make {{cite}} call
{{#data-template:cite-format|id={{{id}}}}}
If we assume that in practice #data-template is usually going to be
wrapped into a template, what's the point of having it at all? Do you
see any technical reasons for it?
