Yea the ~mailman/templates directory is like that.  What I meant was the per-list
language support.  It should probably be ~mailman/lists/listname/template/XX, or
maybe template is the wrong word here.  Regardless, given that the code just
assumes any subdirs are languages, to prevent administrators from accidentally
getting hoist on their own petard, there probably should be a designated place
they go...
