I think this has been brought up before, but a thought I've had: Apart from
the fact that it will require a ton of work in coding, what would keep us
from separating templates (and, for that matter, images) from the article
text? Article text would exist by itself, and categories, templates, images
and metadata would all be kept and edited separately from the article
itself, with "pointers" indicating where the templates and images should go
within the article.
